The need for transports is constantly increasing in our society. It can be products on the way to the stores, parts on the way to a factory, waste transported from your home to the recycle center or people going from one town to another.

Although not as critical as these scenarios, the same does hold true when talking about keeping accurate records of your Onspot chain system.
