Vehicle routing and scheduling with Direct Route™

Applications

Exceed your customers' requirements for delivery times, volumes and service levels with optimal vehicle scheduling (whilst taking into account your capacity limitations).

Applications include:-

• Planning and costing of vehicle routes for strategic analysis and what-if scenarios including fleet sizing
• Dynamic routing calculation where frequent planning of routes with changing customer locations and deliveries is required
• Interactive route planning for altering stops and re-planning

How can vehicle routing and scheduling help you?

The benefits of vehicle routing and scheduling effectively are substantial and include:-

• A dramatic decrease in the time your business spends in planning and assigning vehicles to routes and schedules
• Improved customer service through more accurate delivery times and tighter delivery windows
• Reductions in transport resources including vehicle fleet size reductions
• Lower vehicle miles and fuel costs through more efficient routing

Features

Direct Route™ is an automated vehicle routing and scheduling system that optimises your vehicle routes while ensuring that capacity limitations and delivery requirements are met. When planning optimal routes to customer destinations, it considers delivery times, volumes, distances by road, vehicle cost and capacity.

Related software and extensions extend the capability of Direct Route to include fleet sizing optimisation, resource scheduling, vehicle load tour planning, territory planning and frequency scheduling.

Below are some examples of features that help you to optimise your fleet routing:-

• Highly flexible and easy to use software with an MS Excel data interface
• Interactive route modification within spreadsheet or on detail maps
• Accurate schedule generation based upon road network driving distances
• Comprehensive results including driving times, directions, costs etc maintained by route
• Interfaces with other systems such as ERP, WMS etc for import of order data
• Routing data can be exported to GPS and web-based reporting system
• Static and dynamic fleet sizing calculations and resource scheduling
• Territory planning software for automatic calculation of territories by constraint of volume, stops etc
• Optimal vehicle load tour creation from origin and destination pairs
