Bottleneck pattern
Dispatch & Driver Coordination
Work gets planned in one place and executed in another — dispatchers, drivers, and customers stay in sync by phone call instead of by system.
Signs to look for
- Dispatchers spend more time relaying status than planning routes.
- Drivers call in for information that should already be on their phone.
- Customers get an ETA that's really a guess, because nobody has live status.
What fixing it looks like
A single coordination system that replaces the phone tree: dispatch, driver, and customer all read from the same live record instead of relaying it by voice. This is the exact pattern behind the one case study we can name: a regional distributor moved order management, dispatch, and driver communication onto one platform and cut order-to-dispatch time 62%. Every operation is different, so treat that as an example of the pattern, not a promise about yours.
