See the work between delivery stops
Short road segments can sit between long periods of loading, unloading and customer service. Your delivery fleet needs driver records that explain the whole shift. Factor ELD provides electronic driving records and duty-status logs, with a fleet dashboard for office review.
In a demo, follow a delivery from depot loading to the final return. Ask to see how a driver reviews the log after several stops and adds context where needed. This is a clearer way to assess the app than watching a single uninterrupted highway trip.
Build a setup for your vehicle mix
Delivery businesses may operate vans, box trucks and larger vehicles. List the vehicles that need an ELD and confirm hardware compatibility for each connection type. Factor ELD offers iOS and Android app options, setup guidance and 24/7 multilingual support; discuss the supported version for the phones your drivers use.
Keep your delivery software requirements explicit. If proof of delivery, barcode scanning or route optimization matters, ask about those functions separately. ELD logging should not be treated as proof that a provider includes every last-mile tool.
Bring a busy route to the demonstration
- Several customer stops with loading or unloading work.
- A mid-shift driver or vehicle replacement.
- A delayed delivery and a change to the remaining schedule.
- End-of-day driver review and the office's follow-up process.
For local routes, have your compliance lead review any short-haul exception using the actual reporting location and workday. A short distance between customers does not settle that question.
Delivery fleet questions
Do courier vans automatically require an ELD?
No conclusion should be made from the courier label alone. Vehicle details, the operation and applicable recordkeeping rules determine the answer. Confirm those facts before choosing hardware.
What can Factor ELD show our dispatch team?
Request a demonstration of the fleet dashboard and daily driver records. If you also need dispatch or GPS tools, ask which options are available for your proposed plan and how they fit your current delivery process.
