DRS Logistics
The full logistics cycle of the deposit-return system – from the collection of bags from collection points to counting at the centre – within a single operational environment.
Comprehensive logistics management for the system
The logistics module covers the entire operational process – from the collection of bags at collection points, through transport and sorting, to the counting centre. It provides full visibility of all operations and enables them to be managed in real time.
The system integrates data from various stages of the process, which helps to ensure consistency in operations and minimise the risk of errors.

The process
How does it work?
-
Collection request
The system automatically generates a collection order for the sacks once the set operational minimum has been reached, or at the operator’s request.
-
Transport of sacks
The courier collects the bags, registers them in the mobile app, and the Control Tower monitors the progress of the delivery in real time.
-
Consolidation and sorting
The bags are transported to the transhipment station or directly to the sorting plant in accordance with the planned route and logistics model.
-
Counting Centre
The system records the handover of the bags, verifies the EAN codes and the number of packages, and the results are automatically saved.
-
Accounting and monitoring
Data from the logistics process is fed into the settlement module, whilst the operator monitors the entire operation in real time from the Control Tower.
