The logistics industry loses an estimated $300 billion annually due to communication failures.

πŸ“Š Critical Communication Points:

  • β€’ 23% of delivery failures caused by incorrect customer contact information
  • β€’ 18% of returned shipments due to notification delivery failures
  • β€’ 31% of customer complaints stem from lack of timely updates
  • β€’ 45% of logistics companies cite communication as their biggest operational challenge

Implementation Guide for Logistics Companies

Integrating email validation into your logistics systems requires careful planning but delivers significant returns. Here's how leading companies implement validation across their operations:

Step 1: Customer Onboarding Validation

// Real-time validation during customer registration
function validateCustomerEmail(email) {
  const params = new URLSearchParams({
    email: email,
    verifyMx: true,
    verifySmtp: true,
    detectName: true,
    checkDomainAge: true
  });

  return fetch('https://api.email-check.app/v1-get-email-details?' + params, {
    headers: {
      'accept': 'application/json',
      'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY'
    }
  });
}

// Implement in your sign-up form
document.getElementById('customer-email').addEventListener('blur', async (e) => {
  const response = await validateCustomerEmail(e.target.value);
  const result = await response.json();
  if (!result.validFormat || !result.validMx || !result.validSmtp) {
    showErrorMessage('Please enter a valid email address');
  }
});

Step 2: Shipping Notification System

// Validate emails before sending shipping notifications
async function sendShippingNotification(customerEmail, shipmentDetails) {
  // Validate email before sending
  const validation = await validateEmail(customerEmail);

  if (validation.valid && validation.deliverable) {
    await emailService.send({
      to: customerEmail,
      template: 'shipping_notification',
      data: shipmentDetails
    });

    // Log successful delivery
    await logCommunicationEvent({
      type: 'shipping_notification',
      email: customerEmail,
      status: 'sent'
    });
  } else {
    // Handle invalid email case
    await flagInvalidEmail(customerEmail, shipmentDetails.orderId);
  }
}

Step 3: Supply Chain Integration

Connect email validation to your ERP, WMS, and TMS systems for comprehensive coverage:

  • ERP integration for supplier and partner email validation
  • WMS connection for warehouse staff communication validation
  • TMS integration for carrier and driver email verification
  • CRM synchronization for customer contact data hygiene
