KPIs you are measured on

Top pains and how to handle them

Defects noticed but not written down

Write every defect on the pre-trip sheet; a critical defect means the vehicle does not leave.

Unclear delivery address or time window

Check every stop before departure and call ahead where the plan says so.

Hours pushed to finish the route

Your local driving-time rules come first; tell the coordinator early if the route cannot be finished in time.
