Abstract

In some examples, a service computing device may receive, from respective mobile devices of a plurality of mobile devices, an indication of a communication availability condition of each respective mobile device. The service computing device may determine, for a delivery job, based at least in part on the indication of the communication availability condition received from each of the respective mobile devices, that a first mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices is likely to have a greater communication availability for a duration of the delivery job than a second mobile device of the plurality of mobile devices. Based at least partially on the determination, the service computing device may send, to the first mobile device, a communication to assign the delivery job to a courier associated with the first mobile device.
