Route Optimisation

- Your Roadmap To Greater Productivity

What keeps you awake at night?  Is it fuel prices, greater competition, government regulation, occupational health and safety, customer service or reducing your carbon footprint?

If you have a workforce that drives vehicles to provide a service or distribute a product and you want to get a better return on investment you need to know about route optimisation.

Given the dynamism of the economy the challenges you face today might be different next week.

However, there is one constant that any business must confront, whether it is simply to survive or to grow.

That constant is to gain a competitive edge through greater productivity, either by reducing costs or getting more from your people and your vehicles.

 

The key to doing it right is through route optimisation.


1. From customers on maps

 


2. To optimised drive routes

Take the next step in discovering your roadmap to greater productivity.
 

 

What's involved?

We take what you already know...

  1. a number of jobs that need to be service
  2. a set of resources that can service those jobs

and using MDS Route Optimisation you are able to determine

  1. the most "efficient" order in which to service these locations while,
  2. accommodating various predefined business rules and
  3. respecting "real world" constraints

 

 

How do you do it?

It sounds simple and it is.  With Route Optimisation, MDS realises that

  • Jobs consist of a set of "locations" where tasks take place
  • Resources consist of a mobile entity capable of performing tasks
  • "Efficient" order is defined by minimising time, distance and cost while respecting business rules and constraints
  • Your business rules govern how your business functions
  • "Real world" constraints include geographic or the road network
