From 5 minutes per label to 3 seconds. Here's how.
A complete TMS platform that automates box-level tracking with thermal label printing, barcode scanning, and real-time portal integration.
What They Were Struggling With
FMT India serves major enterprise clients like Solex (Aditya Birla Group) in the logistics sector. Their existing process was a nightmare of manual data entry, handwritten labels, and disconnected systems.
Every shipment required manual label creation, leading to errors, delays, and lost packages. Warehouse staff spent hours cross-referencing orders with client portals. There was no visibility into shipment status until delivery confirmation arrived days later.
The technical challenge: integrate with external client portals (ABLBL), generate compliant thermal labels with specific barcode formats, enable real-time scanning from mobile devices, and maintain perfect accuracy across thousands of daily shipments.
How We Solved It
We built FMT Transporter as a complete logistics ecosystem spanning web dashboards, mobile apps, and hardware integration.
Multi-Portal Architecture: Three specialized web portals—Admin Dashboard for FMT operations, Customer Portal for enterprise clients, and Driver Portal for delivery tracking. Each portal tailored to specific workflows.
Mobile Scanner App: A React Native app that turns any Android device into a barcode scanner. Staff scan incoming goods, the system fetches order details from ABLBL portal automatically, generates thermal labels, and prints directly to connected Bluetooth printers.
Smart Label Engine: Our thermal label generation system supports multiple formats, embeds tracking barcodes, and integrates with ZPL-compatible printers. Labels print in under 2 seconds from scan to print.
Real-Time Sync: MongoDB change streams enable instant updates across all portals. When a box is scanned in warehouse, the customer sees it in their dashboard within milliseconds.
Scan to Print in 3 Seconds
Watch the FMT scanner app in action. A single barcode scan triggers the entire workflow—order lookup, label generation, and thermal printing—all in under 3 seconds.
This is the Solex warehouse in action, where thousands of boxes are processed daily with zero manual data entry.

The Transformation
Before
- Manual label writing (5+ minutes per box)
- Copy-paste from ABLBL portal to create labels
- No real-time tracking until delivery
- Error rate of 3-5% on shipment details
- Paper-based delivery confirmation
After
- Automated label printing (< 3 seconds)
- Auto-sync with ABLBL portal on scan
- Real-time tracking from warehouse to delivery
- 99.9% accuracy with barcode verification
- Digital proof of delivery with timestamps
