Drivers send POD images by text or email — hard to match to the correct consignment later.
Electronic proof of delivery for Australian operators
Proof of Delivery Software Connected to Your Transport Jobs
Capture delivery documents and proof of delivery (POD) on the job, keep office teams aligned on status, and hand completed work to invoicing — inside Hawk Lane Carrier TMS, not a separate delivery-only app.
Hawk Lane is a transport management system for Australian road transport operators. POD capture is part of the broader job-to-invoice workflow on supported plans.
Job documents
Paper PODs Slow Down Billing and Customer Follow-Up
Late document returns
Paper dockets arrive days after delivery, delaying invoicing and customer queries.
Dispatch chasing paperwork
Office staff call drivers for missing delivery documents instead of reviewing the job record.
Disconnected billing
Invoicing waits on a manual hunt through folders and inboxes for the right POD.
From Delivery Capture to Invoice
A practical electronic POD workflow keeps documents on the transport job your team already manages.
- Job booked and allocated in Carrier TMS
- Driver receives assigned job on supported mobile workflow
- Delivery documents and POD attached to the job
- Office reviews status and document completeness
- Customer portal or internal visibility where enabled
- Job handed to invoicing and settlement review
