Y-Fork Smart Workflow Routing

The decision engine that sits between your quote and your operations — automatically routing every shipment to the best handler without a single manual handoff.

The Problem

Manual Triage Is Your Hidden Bottleneck

Every accepted shipment needs a decision: does your in-house team handle it, or does it go to a co-loader, agent, or partner? Making that call correctly — and quickly — requires someone with full visibility into capacity, costs, lane expertise, and partner reliability. In most freight offices, that someone is your most experienced operations manager, spending hours a day on a task that shouldn't need human thought.

When that person is busy, on leave, or makes a call with incomplete information, shipments go to the wrong handler. Margins erode. Relationships get strained. Customers notice the delay.

How It Works

The Y-Fork Decision in Four Steps

Step 01
Shipment Qualification
When a job is confirmed, Y-Fork reads the shipment parameters — mode, lane, commodity, volume, urgency, and customer tier — and prepares to route.
Step 02
Rule Engine Evaluation
Your pre-configured business rules are evaluated: capacity thresholds, partner eligibility by lane, margin targets, and blackout conditions all factor into the routing decision.
Step 03
Routing Decision
The shipment is assigned to the optimal handler — in-house team or specific partner — with full reasoning logged. No ambiguity, no back-and-forth.
Step 04
Handoff & Notification
The assigned team receives an instant notification with all shipment context. The customer-facing status updates automatically. Operations begins without delay.
Key Capabilities

Routing Intelligence That Scales With You

Configurable Business Rules

Define routing logic in plain language — "if lane is India to Germany and volume exceeds 500 kg, route to partner XYZ" — no coding required.

Partner Performance Weighting

The system factors historical partner performance — delivery rates, exception frequency, cost accuracy — into the routing decision automatically.

Capacity-Aware Routing

Knows when your in-house team is at capacity and automatically redirects to partners — preventing overload without a manager's intervention.

Manual Override with Audit Trail

Any routing decision can be overridden manually — but every override is logged with the reason, creating a full governance trail.

Multi-Leg Routing Support

For complex multi-leg shipments, Y-Fork assigns the best handler for each leg independently, optimizing the entire journey end to end.

Routing Analytics

See which routes go in-house vs. partner, what's driving routing decisions, and where rules need refinement — with clear visual reporting.
