Route Disruption Needs a Service Owner
Route disruption is creating service and cost exposure. Decide which orders, ports, and customers need protection before delays compound.
What changed
Route disruption is pushing shipments into alternate ports and creating downstream congestion. The operating issue is not the headline. It is which promises are now exposed.
What to decide
Name the exposed orders, ports, lanes, customers, and inventory commitments. Decide what gets rerouted, expedited, delayed, or reset this week.
What to measure
Track delayed orders protected, service exceptions reduced, expedite cost avoided, customer commitments reset, and actions completed by owner.
