Delay prediction

Identifying problems before they happen

Last updated 13 Dec 2023

Experimental feature

The Skrym delay inference model is still in training, which means you should for the time being be careful with any automation related to Skrym events identifying a shipment as delayed.

Shipping data is inherently difficult to make sense of. That's why Skrym is applying statistical inference and ML models to help identify shipments that are likely to be delayed.

Our goal is to give you information as early as possible when a shipment will be delayed, so that you can work with proactive communication to the recipient to prevent angry calls to customer service.

How does it work?

Skrym uses a variety of data points connected to the time and date of the shipment, as well as:

  • Aggregated statistics of the transporter
  • Average delivery times between major transport hubs
  • Expected event chains and notification spans
