The brand and groceries wholesaler, Nisa, is to launch a new digital way of working which will see the end of paper delivery notes for all partners.

The EPOD (electronic proof of delivery) system will see deliveries from all depots transitioning to the paperless system by early April.

The change means when partners receive a delivery they will no longer sign and receive paper delivery notes.

From April, Nisa will write on the glass of a handheld mobile device and the proof of delivery will be emailed to them.

Jess Graves, Nisa’s Logistics Team, said:

 “This is a huge step forward for our delivery operation which will simplify and streamline the system making things easier for Nisa partners."

“The new system completely removes the need for all the paperwork involved in the delivery process and will improve record-keeping and efficiency."

“This represents an important technological development for Nisa and our logistics partners DHL, and we’re really excited to be rolling it out.”

Scott Swindin, Head of Development at DHL, said:

“As a partnership DHL and Nisa are always striving to enhance the partner’s delivery experience and the introduction of a digitalised solution such as EPOD will help us all with improved on time delivery information, reduced waiting time, support of media tracking as well as fostering the green agenda with reduced paperwork.”
