Automated Driver Check Calls

Part of the Logistics

Contacts the driver by voice, WhatsApp or SMS each cycle, captures location and ETA, updates the load in the TMS and escalates to dispatch on no answer.

Logistics
The context

The operator keeps chasing every driver by phone

Every active load forces an operator to call or message the driver to learn where they are. The team runs three to eight check calls per load, every two to four hours, across dozens of loads. That repetitive work eats the capacity that should go to resolving incidents.

The solution

The driver status arrives on its own, no calling

The agent schedules each load's contact on the configured frequency and reaches the driver by voice, WhatsApp or SMS. It captures the location and ETA, writes them to the load in the TMS and, if the driver misses two cycles or reports a problem, escalates to dispatch.

Key capabilities

What the agent does in your operation.

  • Scheduled contact

    It computes each load's next check call on the configured frequency and reaches the driver, with no operator having to remember or dial.

  • Voice, WhatsApp or SMS

    It calls by voice with a script in Spanish and English, messages on WhatsApp or falls back to SMS, on the channel each driver prefers.

  • Location and ETA capture

    It takes the location and ETA the driver reports, structures them and writes them to the load in the TMS so dispatch sees them at once.

  • Escalation to dispatch

    If the driver misses two cycles, reports a problem or a deviation shows, it escalates the load to an operator with the contact history.
