One of our standout success stories involves G Bishop's Transport (Bishops), a thriving entity that has embraced the efficiency and benefits of the Logical Developments ConNote system. This robust Transportation Management System, in operation since 1997, streamlines the entire consignment process from quoting to invoicing. By eliminating the burdensome paper overload, ConNote consolidates all necessary information into a single, accessible platform, significantly enhancing the tracking and traceability of each consignment.
Bishop's journey with ConNote began as a shift from a cumbersome, paper-based, and spreadsheet-managed system. The pitfalls of a paper-based approach were evident — inefficiency, labour intensiveness, and the potential for errors through repeated data entry. With a growing volume of freight and information in transit, any inaccuracies in data could result in financial losses. Bishops recognized that the consignment note, being the "first point of contact for many systems," dictated the efficiency of their entire process. Mistakes at this stage could lead to extensive audits and verifications for manifested trucks.
For Bishops, the decision to go digital was a natural progression. Leonie, the Operations Manager at the time, emphasized the importance of moving forward with the times. The digitized workflow not only brought efficiencies to the manifesting process but also showcased tangible benefits during trials. ConNote enabled Bishops to complete and manifest ten consignment notes to a trailer in just two minutes, a feat unmatched by their paper-dependent counterparts. The transition to a computerized system was a resounding success, as acknowledged by Prashant, the Financial Controller, who stated, "ConNote allows us to run our business."
