ShopTrackTM is an API (Applications Program Interface) designed specifically to support and enhance the services provided by a portal or any e-business. Research indicated that, while e-tailers provided an entire gamut of product services and information, e-shoppers invariably had to leave the website or use manual means to track their purchases. The result - less eyeball time on their pages. Portals that sought to resolve this dilemma were faced with the unattractive alternative of database maintenance and call centres.
ShopTrackTM provides an effortless, customised solution. Customers no longer have to leave the Portal site to track their purchases. They just need to enter the order-number of their purchase and the shipping and delivery details are displayed on the same page. The Portal can decide how to display the data elements and may even store them in their database. ShopTrackTM is another time and cost-saving tool created to arm Blue Dart's customers with a competitive edge.
PackTrackTM is an API (Applications Program Interface) designed for any client involved in logistics, distribution and inventory control. It has been designed to streamline and integrate shipping processes. PackTrackTM can be integrated into the client's systems and enables him to keep track of the entire distribution status of all his customers. It is simple, easy-to-use and can be easily integrated with any windows-based application or any Java compliant machine. Queries are fetched immediately from Blue Dart's database, providing a seamless service for the client and his customers, and bringing the entire chain within his domain. The client may store this data in his database, providing him with an effective CRM tool.
These e-business tools, the first of their kind in the country, bring increased efficiencies to most B2C, B2B and C2C transactions.

ShipDartTM is a Blue Dart proprietary solution especially created for the convenience of regular customers. ShipDartTM enables user control over the entire shipping and tracking processes. ShipDartTM needs to be installed at the customers premises in order to interface with their own system for the pre-shipping and post-tracking activities, thereby playing a major role in bridging the existing gap in any package movement. A set of Master Files which controls the ShipDartTM system has to be downloaded from the site.
ImageDartTM will enable users of Blue Dart's Apex (Air Package Express) and Surfaceline services to download Proof Of Delivery (POD) and Delivery Challans (DC) online, from the Blue Dart website.

With ImageDartTM, Blue Dart customers will now be able to realise their collections from their own customers much faster, saving them interest costs and making their billing and recovery cycle, and supply chain more efficient.
