Commercial Hot Shot Run Cycle Time Audit

Inspection template for auditing hot-shot/STAT commercial parts delivery cycle times from order entry to shop delivery against the published SLA, with emphasis on timing accuracy, dispatch control, proof of delivery, and exception handling.

Audit Scope and SLA Reference

• Order number, shop name, and delivery route identified
  Record the specific hot-shot run being audited, including the repair order or parts order reference, destination shop, and route identifier.
• Published SLA documented for this delivery type
  Capture the published target cycle time used for evaluation, such as under 30 minutes from order entry to shop delivery.
• Audit date and time window verified
  Document the date and time range covered by the audit sample.
• Sample is representative of STAT or hot-shot delivery activity
  Confirm the run audited is a true hot-shot/STAT delivery and not a routine delivery.
• Source records available for order entry, dispatch, and delivery timestamps
  Verify that system logs, dispatch records, and delivery confirmation records are available for reconciliation.

Order Entry and Dispatch Timing

• Order entry timestamp recorded accurately
  Confirm the time the parts request was entered into the system or received by dispatch.
• Dispatch release timestamp recorded accurately
  Confirm the time the hot-shot run was assigned or released to the driver.
• Elapsed time from order entry to dispatch release
  Enter the measured time between order entry and dispatch release.
• Dispatch delay explained when release exceeded target
  Confirm whether any delay beyond the internal target was documented with a cause such as parts verification, driver availability, or routing conflict.
• Order priority correctly flagged as STAT or hot-shot
  Verify the order was prioritized correctly in the system.

Route Execution and Delivery Cycle Time

• Departure timestamp recorded accurately
  Confirm the time the driver departed with the parts.
• Arrival timestamp at shop recorded accurately
  Confirm the time the driver arrived at the destination shop.
• Elapsed time from order entry to shop delivery
  Enter the total cycle time from order entry to confirmed shop delivery.
• Cycle time met published SLA
  Confirm the delivery was completed within the published SLA for the run.
• Route deviation or stop-off occurred
  Indicate whether the driver made any unplanned stop, detour, or route deviation that affected cycle time.

Proof of Delivery and Handoff Control

• Proof of delivery captured
  Select all proof-of-delivery elements available for the run.
• Receiving shop acknowledged delivery
  Confirm the destination shop verified receipt of the parts.
• Delivered parts match the order
  Verify the delivered parts, quantities, and identifiers match the original order.
• Delivery exception documented when handoff was incomplete
  Confirm any missed signature, partial delivery, or failed handoff was documented and escalated.

Exceptions, Delays, and Corrective Action

• Delay cause categorized
  Select all applicable causes of delay or non-conformance.
• Non-conformance recorded with root cause
  Confirm the audit documented the specific reason the cycle time missed target, if applicable.
• Corrective action assigned to owner and due date
  Verify a corrective action was assigned with a responsible owner and completion date.
• Repeat issue flagged for trend review
  Confirm recurring delays or repeated non-conformances were flagged for management review.
