Who it's for

Transport operators

A transport operator working on container moves can coordinate drivers, vehicles, stops and delivery events from the load. The assignment schedule and readiness records support dispatch planning, and the receipt register gives supervisors a place to inspect an action that did not complete.

How SCM with Container Tracking is set up for you

Driver checks

Review active state and eligibility dates before assigning a driver.

Fleet checks

Compare equipment class, capacity, readiness and recorded defects.

Delivery handoff

Record actual stop times and delivery evidence before completing a load.

A transport operator working on container moves can coordinate drivers, vehicles, stops and delivery events from the load. The assignment schedule and readiness records support dispatch planning, and the receipt register gives supervisors a place to inspect an action that did not complete.

Start with a ready vehicle and an eligible driver. Rehearse a held vehicle, a late stop and a partial delivery exception. Let the dispatcher and supervisor compare the same linked records and decide what must be corrected before another dispatch.

Agree where vessel updates originate, what counts as confirmed pickup and delivery, and who maintains the transport partner record. Keep ETA changes separate from physical events. Use the linked operation receipt when an action fails, and preserve the review reason when a booking is rejected. The first operating cycle should show a complete route from draft load to delivery or an explicit exception.

Use [implementation](/scm-with-container-tracking/implementation) to prepare the pilot and [roles](/scm-with-container-tracking/roles) to rehearse each handoff.

Before a driver takes the load, compare the assignment interval with the planned stops and the vehicle's readiness. If the route changes after dispatch, record the actual stop event rather than rewriting the original window. The delivery handoff should point to the same load and evidence.
