Read each job and dispatch constraint
See this course’s project requirements
A tested two-worker dispatch plan using supplied travel times, skill matches, appointment windows and breaks, plus a disruption revision and customer-update log.
Keep your working files in your own notebook or software. Save a private description, checklist, and work link in My Proof.
What to include
- Build a constraint matrix before allocating routes; include the original-case decision evidence and a separate changed-case result.
- Add J3 and return travel for full route end; include the original-case decision evidence and a separate changed-case result.
- Save the paired assignment with all checks visible; include the original-case decision evidence and a separate changed-case result.
- Recommend from comparable evidence and note the 10-minute assumption gap; include the original-case decision evidence and a separate changed-case result.
- Draft a revised dispatch/customer update with the changed times; include the original-case decision evidence and a separate changed-case result.
- Assemble dispatch packet and next verification action; include the original-case decision evidence and a separate changed-case result.
Review and revise
Use these criteria to check your work and choose what to improve.
- The final packet uses the supplied task-specific constraints and all six records agree.
- Every result can be traced to an identifier, input, calculation or stated decision rule.
- Changed-case practice updates dependent records and keeps holds or uncertainty visible.
- The packet states the learner role, authority boundary and specific next verification needed before real work.

The idea in everyday life
Original fictional workplace practice; paper or a local document is sufficient. The rules and records below are supplied for this exercise, not asserted universal workplace policy. Fictional Oak Service jobs J1 at A40 min skill X access 09:00–10:30; J2 at B30 min skill Y access 09:30–11:00; J3 at C40 min skill X access 10:00–12:00. Workers M skills X/Y and N skill X, each available 09:00–12:00; not emergency service.
Dispatch assigns a worker and full time window to a specific job; skill, travel, access and break constraints are independent.
Read each job and dispatch constraint — worked practice
Dispatch assigns a worker and full time window to a specific job; skill, travel, access and break constraints are independent.
Fictional Oak Service jobs J1 at A40 min skill X access 09:00–10:30; J2 at B30 min skill Y access 09:30–11:00; J3 at C40 min skill X access 10:00–12:00. Workers M skills X/Y and N skill X, each available 09:00–12:00; not emergency service. Use paper or a local document. Preserve the original case and make a separate changed-case record.
1. Step 1
List job ID location duration skill and access window.
You should see: J1: A, 40 min, skill X, access 09:00–10:30; J2: B, 30 min, skill Y, access 09:30–11:00; J3: C, 40 min, skill X, access 10:00–12:00.
Keep the stated identifier, unit and policy alongside this result so another reader can check it.
2. Step 2
Map worker authorized skills without inferring training.
You should see: M can X/Y; N can X only.
Keep the stated identifier, unit and policy alongside this result so another reader can check it.
3. Step 3
Keep travel separate from service duration.
You should see: None of the job durations includes travel.
Keep the stated identifier, unit and policy alongside this result so another reader can check it.
4. Step 4
Build a constraint matrix before allocating routes.
You should see: An Oak dispatch matrix with three job constraints and two workers’ stated availability/skills.
Keep the stated identifier, unit and policy alongside this result so another reader can check it.
What to finish
Build a constraint matrix before allocating routes; include the original-case decision evidence and a separate changed-case result.
Watch for this
Assuming a worker’s presence or availability establishes skill or customer access.
How can I tell I understand it?
Using the supplied identifiers, I can build a constraint matrix before allocating routes. My changed-case record names the revised condition and explains which dependent decision it changes.
