Delivery Order Management

Delivery Order Management Software

Bring delivery orders into one system and turn them into structured delivery work.

Delivery orders can enter your operation in different ways. Some are created manually, some arrive in spreadsheets, and others come through client portals, APIs, or connected systems.

FixLastMile brings those orders into one delivery management platform and turns each order into the shipment and task structure needed for execution.

Manage delivery-only, pickup-only, and pickup + delivery orders, then move the resulting work into planning and dispatch.

Bring Every Delivery Order Into One Operational Workflow

Delivery companies often receive work from multiple clients and multiple sources.

One client may create orders through a portal. Another may send a CSV or Excel file. Orders may also come through an API or an integration with another system.

Instead of managing each source through a separate workflow, FixLastMile brings delivery orders into one operational system. Orders can enter FLM through:

Incoming Order Intake Channels
Manual order creation
CSV or Excel import
Client Portal
API
Integrations

No matter how the delivery request enters your business, the goal is the same: create a structured order that can move into delivery operations.

Manage Different Types of Delivery Orders

Not every delivery requirement follows the same workflow. FixLastMile supports different order types so delivery companies can structure work around the service that is actually required.

Delivery-Only Orders

Create orders where the required operational work is delivery.

Pickup-Only Orders

Manage orders where the required work is collecting an item from a pickup location.

Pickup + Delivery Orders

Manage delivery requirements that involve both collecting and delivering the shipment.

The order defines the delivery requirement. FixLastMile then creates the shipment and task structure required to carry out that work.

From Delivery Order to Executable Work

Create the order once. Let the delivery work take shape automatically.

Creating an order should not require your team to manually recreate the same information across separate operational records. When an order is created in FixLastMile, the system automatically creates the associated shipment structure and the tasks required for delivery operations.

This creates a clear connection between the original delivery request and the operational work required to fulfill it.

Support Orders With Multiple Shipments

One delivery order does not always mean one shipment.

Some delivery requirements involve multiple shipments that need to remain connected to the same underlying order. FixLastMile allows a single order to contain multiple shipments, helping delivery companies structure operational work without losing the relationship to the original order.

Order
├─ Shipment 1
└── Task or Tasks
├─ Shipment 2
└── Task or Tasks
└── Shipment 3
└── Task or Tasks
Multi-Shipment Order Structure

This allows the order to remain the business-level record while shipments and tasks represent the work required to fulfill it.

Instead of forcing every order into a simple one-order, one-delivery model, FixLastMile provides a structure that can support more complex delivery requirements.

Keep Pickup and Delivery Work Connected

Separate tasks. One connected shipment.

A pickup + delivery workflow involves more than one operational action. The item must first be collected and then delivered. In FixLastMile, these can be represented as separate tasks connected to the same shipment.

Shipment
├─ Pickup Task
└── Delivery Task
Connected Pickup & Delivery Tasks

This helps maintain the relationship between the pickup and delivery instead of treating them as unrelated pieces of work.

The operational team can work with individual tasks while the system maintains the connection to the shipment and the original order. This structure is especially important when planning and optimizing work that includes both pickup and delivery requirements.

Update or cancel orders when delivery requirements change

Manage Orders as Requirements Change

Delivery operations are not always static. An order may need to be updated after it has been created, or the delivery requirement may be cancelled.

FixLastMile allows users to edit or cancel orders so the order record can be managed as requirements change.

This gives your team control over the delivery request before and throughout its journey into operational execution.

Move From Order Management to Delivery Operations

Order Management is where delivery demand becomes structured operational work.

Once an order has been created and converted into shipments and tasks, that work can move into the next stages of the delivery workflow.

Order
Shipment or Shipments
Tasks
Route Planning
Dispatch
Delivery Execution

FixLastMile keeps the connection between the original order and the work created from it as the delivery moves through the operation.

One Connected Workflow From Order Intake to Delivery

Delivery operations involve more than collecting orders in a list. Each incoming request needs to become work that can be planned, assigned, dispatched, and completed. FixLastMile connects those stages in one delivery workflow.

STAGE 1

Receive

Bring delivery orders into the system through manual entry, imports, the Client Portal, APIs, or integrations.

STAGE 2

Structure

Create the order and automatically generate the shipment and task structure required for delivery.

STAGE 3

Prepare

Move delivery-ready work into planning and dispatch.

STAGE 4

Execute

Keep the operational work connected to the original order as it moves through delivery.

"From incoming delivery demand to structured operational work, FixLastMile helps delivery companies manage the complete order-to-delivery workflow."
