A haulage movement can change after normal office hours. Our desk keeps the reference, driver, customer and latest instruction connected so an authorised person can see what needs attention.

CAPABILITIES & BOUNDARIES

What this service covers.

01

Shift continuity

Open movements can pass between shifts with the reference, last update and outstanding action preserved.

02

Driver support

Drivers can report collection, delay, arrival and delivery events without relying on scattered personal messages.

03

Customer updates

Essential ETA or exception information is communicated against the correct job reference.

04

Escalation control

A missed slot, access problem or failed instruction can be marked for attention instead of disappearing in an inbox.

WORKING PROCEDURE

Clear decisions before the vehicle moves.

01

Open the movement

Record route, contacts, vehicle, timing and special instructions.

02

Monitor milestones

Track collection, transit, arrival, delivery and any exception.

03

Close with evidence

Record completion and retain the relevant operational timeline.

ILLUSTRATIVE OPERATIONAL SCENARIO

A delivery slot moves after midnight

Illustrative scenario: the receiver changes the booking time while the driver's original contact is unavailable.

  • Log the revised instruction
  • Confirm it reaches the authorised driver
  • Update the customer against the same reference
Practical outcome

The next shift can see the change and the outstanding action without rebuilding the history.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Specific answers before you confirm.

Is the desk genuinely available at night?

Operational support is offered 24/7 for live movements and agreed dispatch work.

Can customers see internal pricing?

No. The Control Room uses role-based pricing visibility; sensitive commercial figures are not shown to drivers or public visitors.

Does GPS replace driver communication?

No. GPS is an operational aid and may be delayed or unavailable; important instructions still require direct confirmation.

What counts as an exception?

Examples include delay, waiting, site-access failure, rejected freight, changed instructions or a missed delivery window.
