Transportation and logistics companies handle vast amounts of paperwork daily. The largest firms process over a million multilingual forms per day, making efficient data capture essential. Automated OCR solutions significantly reduce processing time and errors, improving overall operational efficiency.
Mobile devices present both challenges and opportunities in this industry. When properly integrated, they connect fragmented data sources, allowing real-time automation of data capture across multiple locations.
Logistics firms process a variety of critical documents, including:
These documents must be processed quickly and accurately to maintain supply chain efficiency. However, companies often receive documents from multiple geographic locations, leading to unnecessary duplication of scanning and delays. At ports of entry, precision is essential to assign the correct tariff codes for customs clearance.
Automated OCR solutions eliminate manual data entry bottlenecks while increasing accuracy. By integrating OCR-based data capture, logistics firms can:
Many logistics firms report up to a 28% reduction in overall operating costs after implementing OCR technology. Some have decreased full-time data entry positions by 90%, freeing up resources for higher-value tasks. Companies like WOW Logistics, US Foods, and AFS have used OCR to improve efficiency and strengthen customer relationships.
