Automated Repair Estimate Threshold Alerts

Every few minutes, WebRun opens MRI Intermodal Software, checks newly raised repair estimates, flags any whose total exceeds your approval threshold, and alerts the depot manager in Slack with a Telegram ping so high-value jobs get reviewed before any work begins.

In short

How do I get alerted when a container repair estimate exceeds my approval threshold?

WebRun checks new repair estimates in MRI Intermodal Software every few minutes, compares each total against your approval threshold, and captures the container, principal, and top cost drivers for anything over the line. It posts each high-value estimate to your manager in Slack with a Telegram ping within minutes, so big jobs get a second look before work starts.

  • High-value estimates reach the manager within minutes, not at day's end
  • Routine repairs stay quiet so alerts remain worth reading
  • No costly job starts before a human has taken a second look

Questions, answered

Will it approve or reject the estimate itself?

No. WebRun only alerts your manager to over-threshold estimates so a person decides. It never approves, rejects, or authorizes a repair. The approval stays a human decision inside MRI Intermodal Software.

Are the Slack and Telegram alerts sent automatically?

Yes. Both are internal alerts to your own team, so WebRun sends them on its own within minutes of an estimate being raised. Nothing goes to a principal or customer without separate review.

How do I set the threshold?

You set the currency amount in your run settings, and it can vary by principal or equipment type. Only estimates whose total crosses that line trigger an alert, so routine repairs stay quiet.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes - or have our team set it up for you.
