EDG’s ePOD Solution Helping Your Business to Become Mobile

Our ePOD system can be configured to integrate fully with your existing business processes and ERP software to provide a quick and effective solution to the challenges listed above. This is achieved by increasing your speed of invoicing, reducing customer queries, expediting customer payment and improving your cashflow.

In the field, our system is hosted on client handhelds or tablet computers which are issued to your mobile workforce. Because the solution is fully integrated with your back office system, data only has to be entered once, at source, improving the quality and accuracy of data throughout your various business processes.

The completion of paper documentation will no longer be required, vastly reducing the opportunity for errors. At the same time, the solution will reduce the reliance on driver knowledge for customer access and engagement, as the ePOD system presents information on optimal routes, access and contact information allowing for seamless integration and knowledge transfer to both relief and new reps alike.

All transaction documentation is saved electronically and automatically, which can be retrieved in seconds via our configurable reporting interface. Invoices can also be created at point of sale, whilst users can re-print old delivery notes quickly and easily, assisting in a short lead time in resolving customer queries and a quicker route to payment.

In summary, our ePOD system will help your business to lower its costs, increase efficiency, improve customer service and maximise ROI.
