Transportation, Freight & Distribution calculator

On Time Delivery Rate Calculator

Estimate on time delivery rate for transportation, freight and distribution using production-ready inputs so teams can track KPI performance and decide whether corrective action is needed. Two counts and a target give you a rate plus how far you are from where you need to be.

What this calculator does

  • Estimate on time delivery rate for transportation, freight and distribution using production-ready inputs so teams can track KPI performance and decide whether corrective action is needed.
  • Use it when on time delivery rate in transportation, freight and distribution needs a clean rate and gap-to-target you can put on a tier board.
  • Turns on time delivery rate count, total on time delivery rate population, target on time delivery rate into a rate for on time delivery rate in transportation, freight and distribution.

Formula used

  • On time delivery rate = on time delivery rate count ÷ total on time delivery rate population × 100
  • On time delivery rate gap to target = on time delivery rate - target on time delivery rate

Inputs explained

  • On time delivery rate count: Enter the number of defects, passes, claims, shortages, conforming units, or events being measured.
  • Total on time delivery rate population: Use the matching inspected, produced, tested, shipped, sampled, or installed population for the same period.
