DivinProcessesLogistics and warehouse

Processes

Goods travel, paperwork travels itself.

Logistics runs on documents: delivery notes, CMRs, customs declarations, carrier confirmations. The bot creates, sends and tracks them, while the warehouse and dispatchers do their job.

Today

  • Delivery notes are typed and printed by hand
  • Shipment status is checked on portals
  • Inventory is reconciled in Excel

With a bot

A bot does the same work, by the rules, every day at the same time. People check the exceptions and do what needs expertise.

12 processes a bot can take over
