Abstract
A system includes an orchestration engine and a smart container. The system can dynamically update a transport process for transporting the smart container to a destination based on status data to use a combination of multiple carriers. The smart container can report status notifications while the transport process is ongoing. Examples of carriers include national/global carriers, regional/local carriers, gig workers, corporate/contracted carriers, or short-range delivery services such as unmanned autonomous robots, land vehicles, or aerial vehicles (e.g., drones). As such, the system can take advantage of a diverse ecosystem of carriers and adapt the transport process in real-time to optimize for a target parameter such as a time remaining to the destination, a distance remaining to the destination, or a cost to complete the transport process.
