SQL for On-Time Delivery Trends

HardSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Write a SQL query to analyze on-time delivery performance by site, carrier, and week, including late-delivery rate and trend over time.

Use completed deliveries only. A delivery is late when its actual delivery date is after its promised delivery date.

Output

  1. One row per site, carrier, and calendar week.
  2. Include site_name, carrier_name, week_start, delivery_count, late_delivery_count, late_delivery_rate, and late_rate_change_pp.
  3. Show the prior-week rate change in percentage points, or NULL when no prior week exists for that site and carrier.
  4. Order by site, carrier, and week.
