Royal Mail has launched a same-day delivery service based on GPS satellite
technology allowing customers to track items in real time.
As well as tracking deliveries online, customers can see the exact location
of the vehicle carrying their items including the speed at which it is
travelling.
Contract customers booking online are emailed a receipt signature within 10
seconds of an item being delivered. The system is updated every 60 seconds
providing real-time tracking of an item's progress.
'We anticipate a significant increase in revenue over the next two years
through attracting more customers with this service,' James Eadie, Royal Mail
spokesman, told Computing.
The service is targeted at a varied market from FTSE 100 companies, small to
medium businesses and consumers with occasional need for the service.
