Opti-Time for Pick-up & Delivery
Our Opti-Time for Pick-up & Delivery solution is a version from the Opti-Time Resource Management Suite that is specially designed for planning delivery and pick-up routes.
Opti-Time is a “full web” solution, fully accessible via a web browser.
1/ Integrating and configuring customers and resources:
- Opti-Time lets you identify all of your customers and their specifications: address, hours of business, contact information, etc.
-
You can also enter specific, detailed information about your resources: number of vehicles, location, capacity, number of drivers per vehicle, drivers-delivery personnel and availability.
(All of this data can be imported directly from your information system or from .csv documents). - The scheduling also respects work rules specific to your business: rules related to Human Resources (legal working hours, overtime, time off, etc.),
2/ Scheduling routes and managing new delivery and pick-up requests:
- Opti-Time offers an appointment scheduling interface that displays available delivery times. They are displayed in terms of the availability of your delivery personnel, and the geographic locations of depots and customers. The most suitable and cost-effective time slots are shown. They correspond to the shortest distances and the best fit into the delivery person's schedule.
- The system generates optimized schedules for each delivery person: workload balancing, improved route itineraries and reduced travel distance, rationalization of the number of resources used.
- You can generate detailed route maps and waybills at any time for each delivery person, along with the order in which they are make deliveries or pick-ups during their route.
- All the information related to a delivery can be displayed directly from the schedule. Each route's itinerary can be viewed dynamically on a map.
- You facilitate your teams' activities and make it easy for them to provide feedback: delivery personnel report the successful completion of a delivery with a single click.
Weighing traffic density:
Updated map information is used to plan routes.It takes into account real travel time according to estimated traffic flow and road statistics.
This makes our solution perfectly suited for mixed routes where traffic is sparse in areas outside of the city and denser in urban areas.
Managing dense routes:
Opti-Time for Pick-up & Delivery takes into account the specific characteristics of high-density routes such as household refuse or door-to-door distribution (newspaper delivery).
