In short

The goal was a single triage queue that pulled exceptions out of three systems, classified them, and resolved the routine ones without a human. What shipped was an agent handling roughly 70% of daily exceptions, escalating the rest with full context attached. Dispatch leads went from firefighting to exception review , and average handling time fell by more than half in the first quarter.

Design system

Architecture, event-driven, observable, boring on purpose

The system reads their TMS, ERP and carrier feeds into one event stream. Each exception is classified, enriched, and either resolved automatically or routed with a recommended action. Every decision is logged and replayable, so the team can audit exactly why the agent did what it did.

Visibility and control

The hboards the operations team actually opens

For the operations dashboard was built with the dispatch leads rather than for them, so it shows queue depth, agent actions and exception ageing on one screen. Clear thresholds and a stripped-back interface keep attention on the handful of exceptions that genuinely need a person.
