Distribution Capability Expands in Newest Datatrac^® Release

New Options to Help Couriers and Truckers Expand Their Business

ALPHARETTA, GA – Datatrac Corporation (www.datatrac.com), the leading solutions provider for the expedited freight industry, announced the latest release of its industry leading back office solution for couriers. COPS® v6.7 became generally available on February 18th and offers users a host of new features and functionality to help them operate at peak efficiency.

Featured in this release are key changes designed to support couriers who are evolving to meet the growing demand for distribution services. Status of both on-demand and distribution jobs can now be monitored from a single screen to help dispatchers keep track of progress. Because customers increasingly demand real-time access to tracking information and verifiable proof of delivery data, version 6.7 supports bar code scanning with specific mobile phones used in concert with modular scanners. The capability to transfer jobs to other service providers through the Datatrac network will open new opportunities for expanded service offerings and additional revenue sources.

Speed and accuracy are critical for successful couriers, so COPS v6.7 was engineered specifically to meet those needs. All addresses for both assigned and unassigned jobs in the system are checked through integration with Google Maps™ to ensure drivers don’t waste precious time looking for pickup and delivery locations. With this verified data, users can leverage other components of the complete Datatrac solution for mobile dispatch and visibility into driver positions in real-time.

The latest version of COPS also includes a wide array of enhancements specifically designed in response to customer input. Bret Tenny, Director of Development commented, “We enjoy a great working relationship with our customers and many of them suggested new features based directly on their real-world experiences.”

“Savvy couriers realize there are tremendous opportunities in helping shippers fulfill their distribution service needs,” said Garland Duvall, CEO of Datatrac. “No other courier back office system offers the solid reliability of COPS and we will continue to build upon that foundation to ensure that our customers are equipped to win in this ever-changing market.”
