Follow the intake path

Each guide answers one operational question. Together they form a connected first-contact system with explicit professional boundaries.

01
Identify the product and delivery event
Capture the order, item, location, carrier or delivery context, caller-observed condition, evidence available, and requested next step.
02
Apply the approved resolution path
Use verified policy and order data without diagnosing safety, assigning fault, or promising a refund, replacement, carrier action, or timeline.
03
Preserve the claim record
Confirm photos, notes, permissions, carrier or platform updates, ownership, notifications, and the final disposition across systems.
