Logistics
Freight, warehousing and distribution run on exceptions: a late truck, a short pallet, a missing document.Most of the day is spent chasing and re-keying.AI and light automation take the chasing and the sorting.A supervisor still decides what happens to the load.
Where this goes wrong
Exceptions that need a person
Decide up front which calls stay with a supervisor, such as claims, holds and customer commitments.
Bad data in, bad action out
An automation acting on a wrong load number or appointment time costs real money.Validate before it acts.
Carrier and customer contracts
Rates and terms in contracts should be read by a person before an AI summary is relied on.
Shift handovers
Notes that feed a summary must be consistent, or the summary will miss what matters.
Silent failures
When a flow stops, somebody has to notice the same day.Give every automation an owner.
