Our DMS transforms delivery scheduling into a smooth, predictable process that keeps materials moving and sites running safely.
Deliveries are planned in advance, bottlenecks prevented, and arrivals recorded live — so nothing slips through the cracks. From suppliers to gate teams, everyone works to the same plan. No chasing. No congestion. Just a safer, smoother day on site — with every delivery booked, every arrival confirmed, and every performance insight captured.
Core features of our delivery management system to help materials flow smoother
Suppliers book with certainty
A smarter booking process that eliminates errors and saves time. The supply chain can schedule with full visibility of site hours, gate access, and laydown space availability.
The outcome? Confidence that every delivery is planned, compliant, and arriving at the right gate, right on time.
Full control of the delivery schedule
Logistics teams gain the tools to reduce bottlenecks and act before schedule clashes cause congestion or delays at the gate. Manage and adjust deliveries in one central place, making sure gates and laydown areas are utilised efficiently.
Managing deliveries live at the gate
Planned or unplanned, record every delivery arrival in seconds, capturing essential compliance details and photo evidence. Ensure that all deliveries, vehicles, and drivers are tracked, managed, and safe throughout the entire process.
Confidence that every delivery arrives with an agreed plan for offload
Complete assurance that everyone is aligned on safely offloading every delivery on time, with a pre-agreed plan in place. Ensure all resources are scheduled, and lifting and unloading methods are ready before any delivery reaches the site.

FAQs
Will this replace our manual booking sheets?
Yes. DataScope’s Delivery Management System replaces manual booking sheets with a digital, centralised platform that gives real-time visibility of every scheduled delivery. It eliminates paperwork, prevents double-bookings, and creates a clear audit trail for compliance. Teams and suppliers can access the same live schedule, improving communication, accuracy, and efficiency across the entire delivery process.
Will your Delivery Management System mean more administration?
No. DataScope’s Delivery Management System reduces admin by automating the booking process and removing manual coordination. Suppliers self-book into controlled time slots, while site teams gain instant visibility of planned deliveries. Reports, notifications, and dashboards update automatically, saving hours of repetitive data entry and freeing site teams to focus on managing logistics, not spreadsheets.
Will my sub-contractors and suppliers actually use it?
Yes. DataScope’s Delivery Management System is designed with sub-contractors and suppliers in mind. Its simple online booking process takes minutes and gives suppliers certainty that their slot is confirmed and coordinated with other trades. Many already use similar systems across UK projects, meaning onboarding is quick and straightforward, helping to reduce delays, waiting time, and site congestion from day one.
My site deliveries run smooth already, what added benefit does your system offer?
Even efficient sites benefit from DataScope’s Delivery Management System. It replaces manual coordination with real-time data, automated notifications, and live delivery tracking, making good processes even better. You’ll gain a clear, auditable record of every delivery and improved visibility across contractors and suppliers. This leads to stronger compliance, fewer errors, and measurable productivity gains across your logistics operation.
How much effort is needed to get up and running? Is it difficult to implement?
Not at all. DataScope’s Delivery Management System is quick to implement and fully supported by our UK-based onboarding team. We tailor the setup to your project’s requirements, ensuring a smooth transition from spreadsheets or paper. Most teams are up and running within days, not weeks, gaining instant improvements in scheduling control, communication, and delivery visibility.
Does your DMS integrate with other systems?
Yes. DataScope’s Delivery Management System integrates seamlessly with other DataScope systems to greatly enhance project coordination and reporting. Data can also be exported via API to support your business reporting systems. This means your delivery data can connect directly to site logistics, performance dashboards, and compliance systems. Integration ensures teams work from one consistent dataset, improving efficiency, visibility, and decision-making across every level of project delivery.
How does your DMS improve site safety?
By controlling delivery times and vehicle movements, DataScope’s Delivery Management System reduces congestion and unsafe conditions at site gates. It enforces compliance with site rules, vehicle checks, and access procedures, creating safer working environments. Every delivery is logged and traceable, supporting proactive safety management and compliance with site logistics standards.
How does your DMS system deliver ROI?
DataScope’s Delivery Management System delivers measurable ROI by reducing wasted time, rework, and site congestion. Automating deliveries and minimising delays saves money on logistics, labour, and material handling. With fewer disputes, smoother supplier coordination, and improved safety compliance, contractors typically achieve rapid payback through productivity gains and reduced operational risk across multiple projects.
Does your DMS support sustainability and compliance goals?
Absolutely. The system provides full traceability of delivery journeys, vehicle types, and emissions data. This helps contractors monitor and report on sustainability KPIs and reduce unnecessary transport movements. With paperless workflows, improved logistics efficiency, and auditable records, DataScope’s Delivery Management System directly supports both environmental and regulatory compliance objectives.
