We have been <a href=\"https:\/\/ltsglobalsolutions.com\/the-pallet-network-tpn-network\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">part of TPN, The Pallet Network<\/a>, since 2015. TPN is the leading pallet network in the UK and in 2019 was awarded Multimodal&#8217;s <em>Pallet Network of the Year Award<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Being part of the TPN allows us to offer first-class distribution service for palletised freight. With unrivalled postcode coverage and 130 depot locations, we provide an efficient exercise while reducing unnecessary mileage and emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how <a href=\"https:\/\/ltsglobalsolutions.com\/fulfilled-by-amazon-delivery\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LTS and TPN work with Amazon<\/a> to achieve a streamlined delivery process for your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Efficient Delivery Booking<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Amazon deliveries are booked in via the CARP system on your behalf, by adding:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The correct Amazon fulfilment centre<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Freight type<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Load Type<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Date &amp; Time<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>BOL list reference<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vendor Name<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Purchase Order number<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>LTS then receives an email from Amazon confirming the delivery slot and time. This is entered into TPN connect in the booking time box and also into the notes. We then double check that all FBA, PO and FC details are correct which gives you all your pallet information at your fingertips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Top Questions about our Amazon Service<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1594985749482\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>What is the standard response time frame for service \/ issue enquiries?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Response is immediate to issues; Drivers are held at the delivery point for 20 minutes to allow a customer to resolve an immediate issue, TPN connect captures full details within the consignment detail along with providing the medium to deal with any queries.<br><\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1594985825159\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>How are issues \/ enquiries logged (i.e. email, webchat, phone call etc.)?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Regardless as to how the query was raised all issues are logged via TPN connect system this also has a messaging facility between depots, notes are placed against the job to provide a clear audit trail.
