      "heading": "Request a sample release pack",
      "body": "Ask for a sample of the records the provider would supply: carton counts, final measurements, load photos and exception notes. Evaluate whether those records can be tied to a shipment revision. Evidence quality matters when the seller cannot personally inspect the packing operation."

      "heading": "Test the correction process",
      "body": "Give the candidate a concrete scenario: the seller changes the shipment split after the load is assembled. Ask who authorizes rebuilding, how the cartons are reconciled and when extra charges are communicated. Record the answers before comparing the nominal per-pallet assembly price."

    {
      "heading": "Use an acceptance trial",
      "body": "For the first job, agree a review point before the truck departs. Compare the physical load and evidence pack with the approved instructions. Approve further work only after resolving discrepancies; supplier selection does not itself establish compliance with a particular receiving program."
