HSI QR Code
For shipments created by your customers in our EZ-Ship module, customers have the possibility of adding our HSI QR code on each marking and even on the shipper's declaration!
Using any QR code scanner app (available on Android, iOS, Blackberry, Windows, etc.), all the driver has to do is scan the code in question, and he's taken a page within the mobile app where he can see the actual shipment, the placards required for the shipment, and can add it to his virtual truck with on press of a button.

View all the dangerous goods inside your vehicle in real-time
Not only does our system show you what placards are required, but it will also show you if certain placards can be replaced by the dangerous placards
Our system will calculate placards for both the United-States (worded placards) and Canada (non-worded placards), ensuring compliance when you cross the border
By either scanning an HSI QR Code or searching by the tracking number, easily add shipments created by your customers in EZ-Ship to your virtual truck
Creating a manual shipment is a breeze! Simply choose the correct combination of UN number, proper shipping name, class and packing group, then answer a few basic question such as the weight and the container type, and you're done!
Our system constantly monitors what's being added and ensures it's compatible with what's already inside your virtual truck to flag any segragation issues
Once a manual shipment is completely entered, you can make sure your customers will provide you with the required placards before you hit the road
In an emergency, every second counts. By accessing the Emergency Response Guide section of the app, the system shows you all the individual guides based on what's inside your virtual truck
