Abstract: Provided are mechanisms and processes for facilitating a real-time, on-demand delivery platform for perishable goods by determining aspects such as the location and status of a courier who is affiliated with a delivery platform. In one example, a courier carries a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) enabled mobile device that is configured to detect signals from beacons located at both a vehicle registered to the courier and a provider site. Each of the detected signals includes identifying information and signal strength of the detected signal. The identifying information and signal strengths are transmitted to a server that monitors the signal strengths received at the courier's BLE-enabled mobile device from the beacon devices to determine the likelihood that the courier has arrived at the provider site.
