OmniPoint is the cornerstone of OneRail’s integrated final mile delivery solution.

  • Capture. Within moments of a purchase that requires same-day delivery, OmniPoint captures a shipper’s “demand signal” from their POS, ERP, or e-commerce system: what was ordered, where it is, where it’s going, and when it needs to be there.

  • Execute. Customers can direct deliveries to their own fleet, or to OneRail’s nationwide network of 12 million couriers available 24/7/365.
  • Support. Deliveries can be supported as they occur by OneRail’s skilled Exceptions Assist team to handle unforeseen delivery issues on the customer’s behalf.
