The objective of this thesis was to plan an electrical waybill solution for the case company so that unnecessary delays or mistakes in the waybill handling process would be reduced considerably. The case company of this Thesis is a chemical company which still uses paper waybills for transportation.
The data collection of this study was done in three steps. The methods for data collection were interviews with different stakeholders that are handling paper waybills one way or another and meetings with steering manager and the possible system provider. The current state analysis supported the need for change.
The key elements of the conceptual framework of this thesis included the definition of a waybill and existing knowledge on electric waybill solutions. Conceptual framework guided the proposal building for understanding the waybill as a document.
The outcome of this study can be divided into three categories: the process design for the electric waybill solution, the archive cloud for the electrical waybills, and the MID software. The outcome of this study was built with the help of possible system providers and project participants. The solution is not yet in implementation stage because the project went on hold while this study was conducted.
When this solution would move on to implementation, it could improve the customer satisfaction, reduce uncertainties that the old equipment causes, reduce stakeholders work, information flow would become more efficient and it would be an environmentally better option than paper consumption.
