Ensure appropriate handling and transportation arrangements for fragile, oversized, heavy or sensitive equipment.

4. Documentation

Prepare, verify and maintain freight and shipment-related documentation.
Coordinate documentation required for dispatch, transportation, delivery and customs/shipping processes, wherever applicable.
Ensure accuracy of invoices, packing lists, delivery challans, e-way bills, transport documents, LR/consignment notes, PODs and other relevant documents.
Coordinate with internal Finance, Procurement, Sales, Warehouse and Operations teams for documentation requirements.
Maintain proper records of all freight bookings, quotations, invoices and shipment documents.

5. Compliance & Regulatory Coordination

Ensure freight activities comply with applicable Indian transportation, tax, documentation and regulatory requirements.
Maintain awareness of applicable logistics regulations and documentation requirements.
Coordinate with relevant agencies/service providers for customs, port, transport or regulatory requirements wherever applicable.
Ensure required permits, declarations and documentation are available before movement of cargo.
Escalate potential compliance risks or documentation gaps before shipment movement.

6. Vendor Management

Identify, evaluate and onboard suitable logistics vendors in coordination with management.
Maintain professional relationships with transporters, freight forwarders and other logistics partners.
Monitor vendor performance against agreed service levels.
Resolve issues relating to delays, damages, shortages, incorrect billing and service failures.

Maintain shipment trackers and provide regular status updates.
Coordinate with vendors in case of delays, route issues, damages, shortages or delivery failures.
