Client billing data, packing evidence and parcel sorting. Capture parcel data, support client billing, verify packing and meet outbound cut-offs with right-sized automation for multi-client operations.
3PL operations carry problems single-brand warehouses never see: every error lands in a client review meeting, and every billing line needs backup. The common failure points:
Storage and handling invoiced per parcel or per cubic volume, but with no captured dimensions or weights to back the line items.
Parcel data captureMultiple client cut-offs stacked in the same afternoon, with manual sort as the last step before every carrier pickup.
Sorting assessmentClient claims can be difficult to investigate when packing records are not linked to the order or waybill reference.
Packing recordsEach client has its own SKUs, packaging rules and systems, but the floor shares one set of equipment and staff.
New accounts take weeks to go live because data capture and label workflows are rebuilt from scratch each time.
Weights and dimensions typed twice: once at the bench, again into the client portal or TMS.
Scanning & data hand-offDWS (Dimension, Weigh and Scan) captures parcel dimensions, weight and barcode data in one workflow. Captured parcel data can support billing review and reconciliation. Final billing logic depends on the customer contract, rate rules and system integration. For a 3PL, that record also feeds sort and carrier hand-off:
NetRay supplies the capture steps. The invoice itself is raised by your own contract terms, rate rules and billing system.
Four building blocks that slot into an existing floor. No greenfield redesign required:
Parcel-level dimension, weight and barcode records to support client billing review, carrier invoice checks and sort preparation. Static or conveyor-integrated dynamic configurations depending on volume.
Explore DWS systems
W8 camera + PackEye records packing per order and indexes footage by reference number. Authorized users can retrieve footage by reference, date or time range, which can reduce manual searching and support a more consistent claim-review process.
Explore the packing station
Industrial handhelds built for repetitive scanning, warehouse Wi-Fi, device management and battery rotation across shifts. One device fleet can serve multiple client accounts.
Explore PDAs & scanners
Sort outbound by carrier, client or route ahead of stacked cut-offs. Straight-line crossbelt, wheel and Z-type configurations sized to floor space and parcel mix.
Explore sorting systemsMulti-client floors rarely get a shutdown window. Many customers start with one measurable bottleneck, prove it on one client account, then roll it across the floor. Whether one configuration can serve several clients with different workflows depends on your data flows and label rules; we review that before confirming an approach.
When you contact NetRay, it helps to share number of client accounts, daily parcel volume, main billing basis, current WMS/TMS, number of packing stations and your main bottleneck.
Share number of client accounts, daily parcel volume, main billing basis, current WMS/TMS, number of packing stations and main bottleneck (billing, claims or cut-offs). NetRay will recommend a right-sized configuration with no obligation.
