FLIGHT AND AIRPORT EVENT NOTIFICATION

Shipment tracking for early warning of flight or airport delay


While most shipments reach their destination without a hitch, costs can spiral out of control for those shipments where problems are encountered. Even worse than losing your margin on the shipment is losing the customer relationship because you did not act fast enough. Our event notification services give you proactive shipment tracking to monitor your decisions and take fast action when necessary.



Shipment Tracking Necessity

Whether you ship ten or hundreds of expedited shipments each day, the cost of manual shipment tracking of flight status on every shipment is costly if not impossible. But, failure to identify potential problems early has a direct impact on your bottom line.

Shipment Tracking Advantage

The Pathfinder Event Notification feature lets you affordably track flight status on any or all shipments. Since every shipment doesn't need the same level of scrutiny, you set the criteria, timing and methods for each shipment tracking specific to its value, priority or time sensitivity. The Pathfinder Event Notification solution provides:
  • Visibility into flight status and airport delays
  • A sophisticated Notification Rules Engine that allows you to setup the event triggering conditions to monitor exactly what is important to you for shipment tracking
  • A rules management GUI
  • A notification history GUI that displays all notification messages sent during a specific time period
  • A set of Web Services that allows you to create and manage rules from within your enterprise application
Easy to use notification rules manager improves visibility and efficiency. Complete history of shipment tracking notices lets you analyze internal handling of problems, and improve troubleshooting and training. Notification history also tracks troubled shipments to inform claims disputes.
