Delay Management

Delay management is the process of adjusting schedules in transportation systems—like trains, buses, or flights—to account for delays or unexpected disruptions. Its goal is to minimize overall inconvenience by recalibrating departure and arrival times, reallocating resources, and prioritizing affected services. Effective delay management helps maintain service reliability, reduce passenger wait times, and optimize operational efficiency, ensuring that delays are handled smoothly without cascading into larger disruptions.
