Real-time tracking ensures freight is accounted for throughout the journey. Drivers can capture photos of deliveries or damaged goods, even when out of network coverage, with the store-and-forward feature. All driver events are recorded and updated instantly across all user access keeping all stakeholders informed and streamlining the process. Additional features include optional but and possibly compulsory checks like the Seal Check, which prompts drivers to verify the seal’s integrity before proceeding, adding the verification information to the booking history. Drivers will also receive real-time notifications of any changes made to the route plan by dispatch, ensuring they are always up-to-date and able to adjust as needed.

Divisions
Handle resources, bookings, and what’s going on in all your depots, branches, divisions, and the whole organization. This makes it easier to put loads together, know who’s doing what, plan for what’s coming and going now and in the future, have visibility of changes, and be ready to adapt instantly, and keep your trucks being used to their full potential. Whether you need to focus on what impacts a specific business unit or see the bigger picture for the entire organisation, Divisions has got you covered.

Stacks (under development)
It's about making things easier and more practical for everyone. Dispatchers can track and group containers in stacks so that drivers can assign jobs to their vehicle based on the container that makes sense for them, depending on what the port allocates to them or its location in a work site.

Hubbing (under development)
Keep an eye on where the containers are in real-time, use resources wisely, avoid delays, save cash, and make use of hubs to keep things streamlined and well-organized.

Our Story
Our Story
iCOS Global is built on a foundation of experience, resilience, and a relentless drive to innovate.
It began with iCOS Group, originally created by my partner — a pioneer in logistics software, starting back in the days of MS Windows 2. After his passing in 2003, I chose to carry the vision forward. In 2009, I launched iCOS LIVE, one of New Zealand’s first fully web-based SaaS transport management systems. Bootstrapped and grown organically, it continues to serve domestic freight operators with a powerful, proven solution.
Today, the next chapter is underway.
iCOS Global is a new platform, rebuilt from the ground up on Microsoft Azure. It’s modern, scalable, and designed to meet the evolving needs of the domestic logistics industry. Phase one focuses on container management, with freight management to follow — all developed with the same customer-first values that shaped our success.
We’re proudly self-funded, deliberately paced, and deeply committed to delivering real value — not hype.
This is more than software. It’s a platform shaped by experience, powered by technology, and built for the future of logistics.
