Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evaluating Delivery Operations of Wholesale Food Distributors In addition to the 120 trips time-studied, detailed data were Obtained from.7 other companies covering 10 warehouses and several hundred additional trips. This permitted testing the results of the studies against companies with delivery characteristics which, in a few instances, were different from those time-studied. The data in this report, therefore, reflect the Operations of 15 wholesalers and over 800 delivery trips in all parts of the country. The time studies included all of the usual activities of a grocery delivery driver in his relationship with store operators. The driver unloads the truck, usually into the backroom; he may collect for the merchandise, and, in most cases, waits for the merchandise to be checked. The time studies did not in elude Operations in which the merchandise is price-marked as it is being checked in (causing the driver greater delay), or pallet unloading at the retail store (which reduces unloading time). They did not include operations in which the driver put merchandise on shelves or made out the retailer's next order. Trips which include these factors should not be used in evaluating deliveries by the method given in this report. In the time studies, - the job of delivering merchandise was broken down into its elements; these were timed and rated. Each of the driver's activities, except driving and unavoidable delays, was rated to yield the time a competent Operator, working at normal Speed, would take to perform the same activity. The elements were then combined to show the time required for the major parts of a delivery trip, such as getting ready to unload, and unloading a case of merchan dise. The three major factors were analyzed to determine their relationship to each other and to the total delivery time. The average time for each of these three variables was computed for each trip and then studied. The time for traveling a mile, unloading a case, and making a delivery stop varied with distance between stops, total miles traveled, and number of pieces per stop. The variables were not directly related. For instance, the average unload time per piece was much less when the average order per stop was over 500 cases than when it was under 100 cases. Similarly, the time per mile traveled was less when the trip was longer and the average number Of miles per stop increased.
