Bootworks
The Problem
COVID-19 Forces New Rules
Health and safety is a top priority and requires new business policies that minimize the risk of exposure, illness, and spread of COVID-19.
Logistic Companies Need to Keep their Trucks Moving
The larger the venue the longer it takes drivers to deliver and pick up packages. This limits overall capacity and the ability to service growing demand.
Overwhelming Package Volume
Carriers such as UPS are unable to handle the surge of shipments. This problem is negatively impacting all types of businesses.
Our Solution
Point Inside's Bootworks provides both a technology platform and a flexible workforce.
Bootworks delivery management application enables efficient package delivery.
Bootworks team members ("Bootworkers") deliver the packages inside your venue.
Delivery Services
Single point of delivery means less time in loading docks, enabling more last mile routes.
Point Inside Bootworkers take over the delivery process from the delivery companies. The platform receives delivery manifests and notifies Bootworkers when packages are ready for final delivery. All packages are scanned in and out once delivered.
Shipment Ordering and Pick-up Services
Provide an order management portal to tenants for improved service and reduce missed pick-ups.
Bootworkers retrieve outgoing packages and stage them for the appropriate delivery company for pick-up later in the day. The platform creates an outgoing manifest for each carrier. Tenants gain visibility into the status of their shipments.
Why Malls Want Bootworks
Help Their Retailers
Retailers rely on shipments for inventory replenishment and for fulfillment of orders.
Deliver on Promises
Shoppers visit malls to buy, and malls can't afford inventory stock outs that will impact shoppers' decision to return.
Guarantee Package Movement
Bootworks augments the last mile delivery capability of companies like UPS and FedEX to insure retailers' packages arrive and ship on-time.
Why Commercial Buildings Want Bootworks
Improves Health & Safety
Health and safety is of top priority and requires new business strategies. Bootworks minimizes health risks by reducing in-building visitors involved in package delivery operations.
Reduces Congestion
Buildings are inundated with demands on their facilities. Bootworks eliminates congestion by streamlining all delivery operations and freeing up loading docks, security desks, elevators and staff.
Generate Revenue
Bootworks technology platform allows the building to become a shipment reseller and generate revenue from shipment activity from within the building.
How We Do It
The Bootworks technology is our secret sauce. The Bootworkers are connected to the Point Inside cloud via our mobile app. Our cloud connects to the logistics carriers for package manifest data. The manifest is broken down into logical chunks of work based on package volume, package destinations and distances to be traveled. We also track all package movement and collect detailed data throughout the delivery process. This data and any historical data that’s available from the carriers trains our artificial intelligence so we can better predict work efforts for staffing purposes.
