How does Orbit match a job to the right carrier or vehicle?
Orbit matches a job to a carrier only when the carrier, its vehicle, and its driver together cover everything the job requires. A carrier with a free truck can still be the wrong fit if a single requirement isn't met.
A job carries its own requirements — the capabilities it needs, such as refrigerated transport, a dangerous-goods (ADR) certification, or a driver with a forklift licence, along with the region it runs in. To be eligible, a candidate has to cover all of them.
Those requirements can sit at three levels at once, and each is checked at the right level:
The vehicle provides equipment capabilities — for example, refrigeration or a tail lift.
The carrier holds organisation-level certifications — for example, ADR for dangerous goods.
The driver holds personal qualifications — for example, a forklift licence.
Every required capability must be covered at its own level. A refrigerated truck run by a carrier that lacks the ADR certification still doesn't qualify for a dangerous-goods job — being available is not the same as being eligible. This is why a carrier with a spare vehicle can still be passed over.
When no candidate covers a requirement, the fix is usually in the data: add the missing capability to the vehicle, carrier, or driver, or adjust what the job requires.
Example
A Tour out of Rotterdam needs refrigerated transport and carries dangerous goods. Orbit keeps only carriers that both run a refrigerated vehicle and hold the ADR certification. A local carrier with an empty refrigerated van is passed over because it isn't ADR-certified, while a carrier with the right van and the right certification is offered the work.
