Logistics software to control pilferage

June 9th, 2011 | by : DS

The senior manager of Mumbai booking region has been embezzling the freight logistics organisation for a decade and it took a few years for the management and audit team to realise the fraud

A Indore based consignor filed for missing package claim at  booking office and Bangalore delivery tracking locations, collected claim cheques from both these centers.

3 bundles of a consignment reported missing from Kolkata by a consignee was sold in the black market by one of the freight logistics franchisees at Jaipur.

A branch manager from Hubli and a head office audit clerk at Chennai worked hand in glove to cheat the freight logistics company lakhs of rupees

Sounds familiar ? Yes it happens in most of the traditional parcel service companies… Why does this happen ?

  • No checks and balances in the business process.
  • Poor reporting methods and holding back information for head office
  • Misuse of official stationary such as waybills and delivery receipts
  • Lack of standard operating procedures
  • Outdated methods adopted in reconciliation of vouchers
  • No periodic audits for consignments
  • Excess cash balances at branches and agencies
  • Not yet adopted core banking at branches
