Urban Logistics: Sortation assistance for couriers for last mile delivery

Do you think you have a solution for us?

Our company is a global leading logistics company that offers solutions in contract logistics, freight forwarding, parcel, supply chain management and ecommerce logistics. We are actively looking for solutions for the following 2 problem statements.

Problem Statement 1
Sortation assistance for couriers for last mile delivery
The manual identification of shipments by couriers based on reading shipping labels can lead to inefficiencies such as additional sorting duration.

Problem Statement 2
Tracking and locating shipments within Service Centers for exception handling
Our customers are allowed to amend their delivery requirements before delivery is complete. When customers make changes, such as delivery date or location, couriers need to identify and extract these shipments from the sorting process, which may include manually searching the facility.

We are seeking an innovative solution that can address BOTH problem statements, i.e.:
1. Will intuitively indicate to couriers when they need to retrieve a shipment off the conveyor, without them needing to read the shipping labels.
2. Will be able to accurately track and locate shipments within the facility.

Operational site: Singapore
Proof of Concept budget: Up to SGD 40,000/-
