Scan-to-Scan

Scan-to-scan refers to a carrier's practice of recording an electronic scan event at every major handling touchpoint in a parcel's journey — induction, sort, load, delivery attempt, and final delivery. The continuous scan chain creates a full chain of custody and provides both shippers and recipients with granular, real-time visibility. LMS maintains a scan-to-scan tracking record for every parcel moving through its network.
