Common Challenges in Delivery Operations

Fragmented Systems

Many businesses rely on separate tools for order tracking, vehicle assignment, and customer updates. This leads to data duplication, miscommunication, and delays.

Inefficient Route Planning

Without real-time mapping and optimization tools, delivery routes are often suboptimal, increasing fuel consumption and delivery times.

Poor Visibility

Customers want real-time updates, but many companies lack the tools to offer accurate ETAs or live tracking.

Paper-Based Processes

Manual logs for deliveries, signatures, and status updates increase the risk of error and reduce accountability.

AST Solutions bridges these gaps with Odoo ERP-integrated delivery apps designed for modern operations.

What is a Delivery Application?

A Delivery Application is a mobile and web-based tool that enables:

• Real-time order tracking

• Route optimization

• Driver management

• Status updates and notifications

• Digital proof of delivery

When linked with an ERP system like Odoo, it ensures seamless information flow across departments—sales, logistics, inventory, and finance.
