The operating question
Fulfilment is a sequence of handoffs, and each one is a chance to lose the order context that the next person needs.
What to decide, in order
- Pick and pack Item, quantity, insert and pack configuration verified against the order.
- Documents The document set that travels with the parcel, reviewed as a set.
- Milestones Four or five checkpoints, each with a decision attached.
Quick reference
| Decision | What it settles |
|---|---|
| Pick and pack | Item, quantity, insert and pack configuration verified against the order. |
| Documents | The document set that travels with the parcel, reviewed as a set. |
| Milestones | Four or five checkpoints, each with a decision attached. |
Where the handoff usually breaks
Damage is done before an exception becomes visible: a delivery date is repeated for days after the underlying milestone has failed.
What good looks like
Everyone reading the same order knows which milestone is next, what it means and who acts when it slips.
