The Transport Protection Summary provides iCat AI-driven moving blanket and bubble wrap counts for single non-boxed items within the Estimating Report.
It establishes a standardized, system-generated baseline for protection materials — supporting consistent planning, structured documentation, and aligned billing practices across pack-out operations.
By generating protection quantities directly within the estimate, the feature reduces reliance on manual on-site material tracking while improving consistency across technicians and locations.

How Quantities Are Determined
Material quantities are generated using iCat’s standardized AI-driven protection logic.
Each single non-boxed item is evaluated based on its type, structure, and transport considerations.
The system assigns recommended protection amounts aligned with consistent handling standards across the platform.
These recommendations support safe removal and outbound transport from the loss location.
