Triage

Logistics Exception & Disruption

Triage is the logistics war room. It watches the end-to-end flow across the dock, warehouse, and transportation for early warning signals, then ranks exceptions by real impact: customer risk, revenue exposure, and operational effort. Triage doesn’t just shout “late.” It tells you what broke, who is affected, what is most urgent, and what corrective actions prevent the same failures from recurring.

Primary Outputs

Typical deliverables
Live exception queue across WMS/TMS/ERP: what’s broken right now
Impact scoring by customer, OTIF risk, revenue exposure, and expedite cost
Root-cause clusters for repeat failures (carrier, dock, inventory, planning, compliance)
Daily war-room brief with owners, actions, deadlines, and escalation rules
Recovery playbook suggestions: re-slot, re-wave, re-route, expedite, partial ship, reschedule
Recurrence tracker: which fixes worked, which didn’t, and what to lock into SOP

Core Capabilities

What it does
Normalizes exception signals across systems into one prioritized queue
Separates “noise” from true risk using impact scoring and confidence thresholds
Identifies the failure point: inventory, wave/pick/pack, staging, dock, carrier, or appointment
Clusters repeat issues into systemic root causes to drive permanent fixes
Recommends recovery actions aligned to customer rules and operational constraints
Tracks corrective actions to closure and measures recurrence to prove improvement

  • Which customers and orders are at risk, and what’s the best recovery action?
  • What keeps repeating, and what permanent fix will stop it?
