Taking the Guesswork Out of Efficient Logistics
Manual carrier allocation is fraught with issues like delayed order fulfillment, improper load distribution, and higher logistics costs. It’s also a time-consuming process that ultimately results in lower customer satisfaction.
ClickPost’s automated carrier allocation engine uses machine learning to sift through historical data to find the best carrier for every shipment. This rule-based system is designed to increase efficiency by helping businesses improve their KPIs. Numerous brands across industries rely on ClickPost’s intelligent carrier allocation to reduce shipping costs and delays and improve customer experience.

- Pre-defined Priorities
- ODA Activation
- Load Distribution
Rule-based Filters
Allocates the best carrier for any shipment based on parameters like payment mode, delivery, order value, pincode serviceability, and more.
Pre-defined Priorities
Set carrier priorities for automatic allocation. Let’s say, your first priority states all items below 5kg must be shipped via BlueDart and the second one assigns DHL for all prepaid orders. Then a prepaid order below 5 kg will be shipped with BlueDart, in accordance with your set rules.
ODA Activation
Activating the ODA or Out-of-Delivery Area function automatically removes from the list of available carriers, ones that are not serviceable in the delivery or pickup location of a shipment. This eliminates the risk of assigning carriers to unserviceable pin codes/zip codes.
Load Distribution
Distribute load weightages across carriers based on business logic. Demarcate load distribution as percentages or numbers of monthly orders.
ML-based Carrier Allocation for Smarter Shipping
ClickPost uses past shipment data to analyze carrier performance across various metrics like RTO, shipping costs, SLA breaches, and more. Businesses can choose one or a combination of these parameters and assign weightages to each one of them based on the problem they are looking to solve. The automatic carrier allocation module then selects the best carrier based on your requirements.

FAQs
1) How do I know if ClickPost’s automatic carrier allocation is a good fit for me?
ClickPost believes in showing by doing. To that end, it can run a simulation based on your selection of months to present the most efficient carrier plan for a better benefit-cost ratio. However, owing to differences in systems, we can only offer this feature to existing customers.
2) Is it possible to set rules for multiple carriers using the automated allocation module?
Yes, since ClickPost offers multi-carrier shipping, businesses can use the smart carrier allocation engine for as many carriers as they like.
3) How does ClickPost’s ML-based system work if a business does not store any past shipment data?
For small and medium-sized businesses that do not record past shipment data, ClickPost uses its own data. Enterprise-grade businesses can share their city or pin code level data with ClickPost or use ClickPost data reserves if they like.
