A package delivery sharing system includes a holding area for holding packages intended for delivery to one or more package recipients and a computing system with a processor and memory storing records of packages in the holding area. The processor is configured to track each package in the holding area awaiting delivery to the one or more package recipients, to offer a fee to individuals other than the package recipients for delivering a given package in the holding area to a particular package recipient, to select a person who accepts the fee in return for transporting the given package to the particular package recipient, to enable the person to access the holding area, to help the person to find the given package, through light guidance or other visual cues, and take the given package, and to confirm that the person took a correct package from the holding area.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a management program that causes a processor included in a computer to execute a process, the process includes extracting data identification information that identifies monitoring target data from instruction log data, the instruction log data being recorded operation for the monitoring target data to be monitored, and storing, in a memory, the data identification information and history identification information that identifies history data in association with each other, the history data indicating a history of the operation for the monitoring target data.

An initial transaction is generated representing a forecasted demand for material needed to manufacture equipment via a supply chain. The initial transaction is added to a blockchain for access by entities in the supply chain comprising at least a subset of one or more supply entities, one or more material distribution entities, and one or more manufacturing entities. In one or more examples, the steps may be performed by an OEM blockchain node that accesses any transactions added by the various entities on the blockchain node and limits access to transactions on the blockchain by the various entities. Further, the initial transaction may be a main transaction and a transaction representing a commitment by one of the supply entities may be a sub-transaction of the main transaction, and the sub-transaction is closed in the blockchain upon the request for payment for the committed material or payment of the request.

In some examples, a computing device may receive, from a user device, user input indicating selection of a first item to place an order with a merchant. The computing device may analyze a plurality of transaction records for past orders to determine a likelihood that the first item will be unavailable for the order. The computing device may send a communication that causes the user interface on the user device to display a notification including a request for an action to perform in the event that the first item is unavailable. The computing device may receive a response including an instruction for the action to perform. The computing device may cause the order to be placed with the merchant. In response to receiving subsequently an indication from the merchant that the first item is unavailable, the computing device may send a communication to cause the action to be performed.

A system for managing a local area shopping network is disclosed. The plurality of subsystems includes an order request subsystem, configured to receive a request of a product order from registered/unregistered (a customer can be guest customer) customers. The plurality of subsystems includes a parameter determination subsystem configured to determine a delivery area, a delivery schedule for sellers and determine product pickup area for the customers/buyers based on their preference and location. A buyer may decide for delivery only, in that case there is no pickup area/perimeter. The plurality of subsystems includes a product transaction subsystem. The product transaction subsystem is configured to identify (all sellers. If there are none that meet criteria then it is blank) one seller from the list of the registered sellers based on received request of the product order and establish a direct communication link with the customer. The product transaction subsystem is configured to complete the delivery of the order to the registered customers upon accepting the received request. (sellers do delivery and not the application) Customers and sellers are connected in a single platform, and transaction is facilitated.

A delivery compliance system includes a memory and a control module. The memory stores a driver compliance application. The control module executes the driver compliance application to: detect states of vehicle devices; detect location and speed information indicative of a location and speed of at least one of a delivery vehicle, a mobile device, and an augmented reality (AR) device; determine a delivery route for delivery of a first package from a start location to a drop off location; based on the location and speed information and the delivery route, determine compliance correct states; compare the states to the compliance correct states; and based on the comparison, generate instructions to instruct a driver of the delivery vehicle to become in compliance for the delivery of the first package and/or be in compliance when making a subsequent delivery of a second package.

A modular mobility base for a modular autonomous bot apparatus transporting an item being shipped including a mobile base platform, a component alignment interface, a mobility controller, a propulsion and steering system, and sensors. The component alignment interface provides an alignment channel into which another modular component can be placed and secured on the platform. The mobility controller generates propulsion control signals for controlling speed of the modular mobility base and steering control signals for navigation of the modular mobility base. The propulsion system is connected to the platform and responsive to the propulsion control signal. The steering system is connected to the mobile base platform and is responsive to the steering control signal to cause changes to directional movement of the modular mobility base. The sensors are disposed on the platform provide feedback sensor data to the mobility controller about a condition of the modular mobility base.

A system, method, and computer program product for implementing electronically generated promotion deployment is provided. The method includes receiving electronic data comprising shipment identification for a shipment of an item from a shipping client to a recipient. Specialized programable software code is generated and a resulting profile is generated for the recipient. A visible promotional structure associated with a package comprising the shipment is generated and presented during delivery of the package. Generating the visible promotional structure may include generating a physical structure or a digital structure.

Systems and methods for generating and implementing a household customer database are disclosed. In one aspect, a method for processing items comprises receiving a first item to be delivered and identifying data corresponding to one or more of a source information and destination information of the first item. The method further comprises identifying secondary information of the first item, storing the source, destination, and secondary information in a database, creating associations between the source, destination, and secondary information, receiving a request to analyze information stored and associated in the database, determining whether the database comprises information necessary to perform the requested analysis, identifying if additional information is needed to perform the requested analysis, updating the secondary information associations to include the additional information if needed to perform the requested analysis, and analyzing the information stored and associated in the database based on the received analysis request or query.

Rule data sets are received. These rule sets are associated with constraints controlling how records that are associated with the goods are consolidated. These goods are to be received for importing. An estimate score indicative of the risk for inspection for a first set of goods that are to be imported is generated. Based at least in part on the rule data sets and the generated estimate, a plurality of records are consolidated to a single instance for the first set of goods. Based on the consolidating, a user interface is caused to be generated that renders information associated with the consolidating.
