5 Ways Live Screen Helps Enhance Real-Time Visibility Platform

Live Screen Enhances Real-time Visibility Platform

Complete operational visibility is what all logistics and supply chain organizations strive for. Ideally, a real-time visibility platform requires information to be updated at a very high frequency (every second), making it very desirable for organizations to install one. The use of GPS and IoT devices combined with Artificial Intelligence (AI) helps with predictive insights to streamline operations. As per a Gartner report that surveyed 1000 supply chain professionals, “60% of CSCOs are expected to make faster, more accurate and consistent decisions in real time”.

How Big is the Real-time Visibility Market?

As per a Gartner report, the real-time visibility market size was $300 million in 2020 and is expected to reach $1 billion by 2024. The real-time visibility platform offers companies and consumers live updates of the items ordered. The information is obtained from unique GPS and telematic hardware placed on the truck, bike, or container transporting the goods and is activated as soon as the vehicle leaves the manufacturing plant or warehouse/ hub.

2- Collaborative Monitoring: Multiple team members can view and interact with live data simultaneously using a Live Screen. This enables cross-functional collaboration, enabling teams from different departments to work toward the organization’s goal.

For example: In a manufacturing plant, operators and managers can access the Live Screen to monitor delivery metrics, quickly detect bottlenecks, and collectively troubleshoot issues in real time. The seamless sharing of information ensures that everyone is on the same page, leading to faster problem-solving and improved productivity.

3- Alerts and Notifications: With Live Screen, dispatchers will be alerted and notified of events, such as delivery status, ETAs, and potential delays. This will help the dispatcher proactively address issues and communicate with delivery associates effectively.

For example: When an order is in transit, and there’s a roadblock ahead in the planned route, the dispatcher just needs to enter the order number, click on All Actions, and then Notify the Delivery Associate. Or Under the Delivery Associate Tab, find the Delivery Associate tagged to the order and message him or Notify the Delivery Associate.

4- Real-time Tracking: Live Screen provides live GPS tracking of the fleet and delivery associate. Thus allowing the dispatcher to monitor their movement and location in real time. This functionality allocates resources efficiently and responds promptly to any deviations or delays. The Map showcases all the Trips associated with the Orders. Additional Map settings include the Selection of the Map View (Google Maps or Open Street View Maps), Map Type (Roadmap, Terrain, Satellite, Hybrid), Map Theme (Day or Night), and Miscellaneous.

5- Intelligent Manual Assignments: Sometimes there may be situations where there has been a problem with order allocation. Here the dispatcher gets the power to manually assign these orders to delivery associates. But the advantage here is the dispatcher can directly assign the orders to a trip or a delivery associate with just three clicks!
