📄 Prompt Template

Analyze [CompanyName]’s outbound network to design a consolidation playbook that reduces cost-to-serve while protecting service levels across [Region]. Use shipment history from [HistoricalShipmentsFile] and lane priorities from [LaneList] to identify pool points, multi-stop opportunities, and mode-shift candidates (LTL→load-to-ride, parcel→LTL, TL→intermodal). Calculate savings using [CostPerMile] and [FuelSurchargePct] and quantify service impact against [TargetOTIF].
Output requirements: (1) A Markdown table of “Top 15 Consolidation Tactics” with columns: Lane, Current Mode, Proposed Strategy, Estimated Savings %, Service Impact, Risk, Prerequisites. (2) A 90-day rollout roadmap (bulleted, by week) with owners and checkpoints. (3) A KPI set (definitions + formulas) covering cost per hundredweight, OTIF, dwell, and cube utilization.
Include an executive summary (<180 words), key assumptions, and a RACI for stakeholders in Transportation, Customer Service, and Sales Ops. Prioritize quick wins (<30 days) and flag any dependencies on [TMSName] configuration or DC cut-off changes.
