There’s so much that can go wrong in the shipping of sensitive and delicate parcels. Whether it’s medicines, highly sophisticated technology devices or living creatures that can easily deteriorate while being transported, the odds of them being damaged or else made ineffective, are quite high.
That’s why handlers need to be able to rely on a platform like the one created by Dutch startup Innotractor as a result of the EIT Digital supported “Gravity” innovation activity.
The solution consists of three building blocks that enable a new way of handling parcel delivery and accelerate the implementation of more reliable and sustainable delivery processes: DiLLaStm (Distributed Ledger for Logistics and Supply chain management - the ledger and application layer), GRAVITY (the core technology layer) and Telbase (for CRM, billing and payment process).
DiLLaS is a ledger service which securely registers all activities and data in the end-to-end logistics chain and makes this data transparent to all parties involved. DiLLaS does not replace corporates’ existing shipping functionalities, it rather aims at acting as a glue between all parties in the logistics ecosystem. It can be used to enhance and streamline any kind of value chain where logistics is involved, from bike-sharing services to company fleets, from shipping electronic goods to medical supplies.
