Common questions about implementation, integration, devices and support for IQ Logistics.
IQ Logistics suits operations that move goods and still rely on paper or an ageing system to record it. That includes warehouse and depot operations, general haulage, food logistics, retail fulfilment, and bulk fuel and LPG distribution. Touchstar Rugged devices run on warehouse floors, in cold stores and in vehicle cabs. Proof of delivery covers parcel and general delivery fleets, and bulk proof of delivery handles fuel oil and LPG rounds, with ATEX-certified device options for potentially explosive atmospheres.
In most cases, yes. Before recommending hardware, our team reviews your current setup and specifies devices that fit it. Our devices work with standard barcode formats and the warehouse and logistics systems most operations already run. As a partner of Zebra, Honeywell and Advantech, Touchstar supplies their devices alongside Touchstar Rugged, so you are not limited to one manufacturer.
You can buy either on its own, or both together. Our proof of delivery software runs on mobile devices you already own, and our rugged devices run third-party applications. There is no all-or-nothing package. Whichever you choose, the same UK team supports it, so a question about a device or the software goes to one place.
Yes. The mobile app keeps working when signal drops. Drivers can scan items, capture signatures and take photos as normal, and the data is stored on the device. When signal returns, the app sends only what has changed, so the back office and your customers catch up quickly.
Yes. Our integration software and a published API connect our delivery software to your ERP, WMS, TMS and accounts systems. Each delivery record passes into your back-office systems as the job closes, so nobody rekeys it. Integration support comes from Touchstar’s UK-based team, by phone or on site.
They are kept. Customisations to our delivery software carry through every upgrade, so you do not rebuild your setup each time a new version is released. Touchstar applies updates for you, and talks you through any change that could affect your configuration before it goes live.
If you are moving from paper, we configure the system from scratch so you capture digital records from go-live. If you are upgrading from a legacy platform, our implementation team plans the transfer of your delivery history, customer data and route information as part of onboarding.
Touchstar runs the implementation with its own UK team, fitted around the resources you have in house. Depending on your operation, that mixes on-site and remote work: system configuration, connection to your back-office systems, device staging and driver training. A Touchstar project manager plans the rollout with you around your delivery schedule. Our UK team then hands over to your staff and stays on as your support contact.
Straightforward deployments can be running within weeks, and integration with an existing ERP or WMS takes longer. The timescale depends on the size of your operation and how much back-office integration you need. A scoping conversation with our UK team gives you a realistic timeline for your operation before anything is agreed.
Every deployment is supported by Touchstar’s own UK engineers and support staff, with no third-party contractors or offshore helpdesk. The UK support desk runs from 06:00 to 18:00. Because Touchstar supplies both the hardware and the software, one team diagnoses the fault, whether it sits in the device or the application.
