Example Output
# Scheduled Delivery Support Workflow
Triage
1. **Awaiting schedule:** confirm service area, product readiness, and available windows.
2. **Confirmed window:** send reminder with access checklist and change cutoff.
3. **Driver delayed:** check dispatch ETA, notify customer, and offer reschedule if delay exceeds policy.
4. **Failed access:** document driver notes, photos if available, call attempts, and reschedule fee decision.
Reminder SMS
Your delivery is scheduled for {{date}} between {{window}}. Please keep your phone nearby and confirm access notes here: {{link}}. Reply HELP if the window no longer works.
Dispatch Handoff
Order ID, service level, promised window, customer phone, building access notes, elevator booking time, previous failed attempts, and requested next action.
Metrics
First-attempt success rate, failed-access reason codes, carrier response time, reschedule contacts, and damage claims after scheduled delivery.
Tips for Best Results
- 💡Capture building and access notes before delivery day; appointment support is mostly prevention.
- 💡Separate carrier-caused delays from customer access failures so compensation stays fair and consistent.
- 💡Use proactive SMS carefully; a clear reminder can prevent an entire support thread.
