STARS: Smart Tanker Records

STARS — the Smart Tanker Activity Recording System — makes water-tanker deliveries simple to record and simple to bill, for the consumer receiving the water and the supplier delivering it. A consumer is any establishment or individual that receives its water by tanker — like a housing society, factory, hotel, hospital or commercial site. Keeping track of every delivery, and matching it to the supplier's monthly bill, usually means a register at the gate, a diary, and a lot of back-and-forth at month-end. STARS puts both sides on the same page. A guard records each tanker as it arrives — a photo, the time, the vehicle and the quantity. Everyone sees the same list of deliveries as they happen. At month-end the bill is built straight from those deliveries: the supplier is paid for what they delivered, the consumer pays for what it received, and there's nothing to chase. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Record every tanker in seconds at the gate — photo, time, vehicle, quantity • See all your deliveries and reports in one place, on web or phone • Place orders and follow them from request to delivered • Get a clear monthly bill built from the deliveries themselves — easy to check, easy to settle FOR CONSUMER AND THEIR SITES THAT RECEIVE WATER • One shared, always-current record of every delivery • Simple roles for your guard, care taker, admin and view-only members • Month-end billing that already adds up FOR WATER SUPPLIERS (vendors and distributors) • A console to manage orders, tankers and customers • Bill each customer straight from their deliveries • Send quotations and clear monthly statements WORKS WHERE YOU WORK • Record deliveries even with no signal — they sync when you're back online • Web for the office, mobile for the gate • Notifications keep everyone in the loop STARS is a business tool for organisations that send or receive water by tanker. You'll need an organisation Code and a login to sign in; new organisations can register in the app, and suppliers can add their own customers. By Simplify Planet Labs LLP.
