As a professional, when I would see a possible delay coming up, I would call the customer, advise the situation and keep in contact with my provider to get frequently updates. If it would be out of my control, such as rain or accidents, comunicate with customer and reschedule. However, if I would see as a pattern from vendor, call in for a meeting and do a SWOT analyses and a plan to track improvements.

In my experience, dealing with potential transportation delays requires a proactive approach. One thing I’ve found helpful is maintaining clear communication with all stakeholders—both suppliers and customers—so they’re aware of any changes in real time. I also establish backup plans, such as alternative carriers or routes, to minimize disruption. Additionally, using data analytics to predict delays and optimize routes in advance helps mitigate issues before they arise. Finally, building buffer times into schedules ensures that operations remain on track, even when hiccups occur, allowing for a more flexible response to challenges.
