Since the invention of paper, mankind has left no stone unturned in using papers for their every communication related purposes be it sending a message, writing religious books, spreading propaganda etc.
Talking about the modern period, for more than two centuries, paper was/is the primary way used by businesses owners and managers to communicate with their workers.
From guides, work orders, reports, accounts, schedules to certificates, all are printed out and its copies are physically distributed across the workforce.
The road transport industry too is mostly dominated by paperwork wherein paper is used to draft documents, register logistics details, and record all transit activities.
Such a document is Bilty, a bilty is a lorry receipt and a consignment note that is issued by the logistics company or any packers/movers firm providing transportation services from one location to another.
It’s a document that is prepared by the transport firm or the consignor at the time of loading of goods in the vehicle. Bilty also acts as an undertaking that only at the determined location the delivery of the consignment will be made.

The hassles of paperwork
Like any other industry, the road transport industry too faces many issues relating to managing bundles and heaps of paperwork. There is also a lot of paper wastage, difficulty in tracking previous data and past transactions.
Some more major drawbacks of road transport companies using paper-based solutions are-
Diminished Productivity
There is a lot of inefficiency in traditional paper approach as one needs to manually process information in the paperwork and has manage it properly as it is physically ‘shuffled’ across an organization.
Too much Printing involved
As road transport is a field service sector, it requires many documents to be printed for each scheduled task. Also there are multiple forms, worksheets, and certificates that might be needed for that particular transport task.
And the more paperwork is created and printed, the more a transporter/transport company has to create space to securely store all of this information.
Extensive paperwork also requires the administrative time and resources needed to manually manage huge amounts of documents.
Reputational damage
A transport business’s reputation is critically important for its competitiveness in its field services.
Business reputation is the trust and reliance that your customers, as well as clients, have in your ability to deliver what you assure. It is incredibly hard to achieve and too easy to lose.
A business having a paper-based management setup will always struggle to keep up with its customers’ and clients’ expectations.
Practices rooted in paper-based management setup result in slower processes, increase in administrative resources and are prone to risk of inefficiency – documents being lost, handwritten notes being misread and paperwork incomplete.
Time to change
With now the entire world is getting digitalized, we need to reevaluate the efficiency paper-based management and opt for seamless and hassle-free digital options.
