Delivery Attempt Failure
Delivery attempt failure is when a courier cannot complete delivery in a try.

Detailed Explanation
Common failure reasons include customer unavailable, incorrect address, payment issues, and access constraints. Repeated failures increase costs and lead to returns.
How It Works
Couriers log failure reasons, systems trigger customer outreach, and reattempt windows are updated.
Why It Matters
Understanding failure patterns helps improve reattempt success and reduce RTO.
