“Everyone can finally see the same plan instead of three different spreadsheets.”
चुनौती
This anonymized composite reflects a common distribution pattern: deliveries to job sites were planned in spreadsheets that went stale the moment something changed.
Different people kept different versions of the plan, so missed windows and double-booked trucks were common.
Trailflow से क्या बदला
The team moved dispatch onto one shared board where assignments, stops, and changes were visible in real time.
Planners could re-sequence deliveries around job-site readiness, and reporting made it clear where time was actually being lost.
परिणाम
On-time delivery to job sites improved once everyone worked from one live plan.
Reporting exposed dwell and sequencing problems the spreadsheets had hidden.
