What is fleet optimisation and route planning?
Fleet optimisation and vehicle route planning allows businesses to create efficient and cost-effective driving and delivery routes, helping to reduce costs through considering a range of important factors. These include:
- Multiple drops along one route
- Traffic conditions and roadworks or diversions
- Nearest driver to specific location or drop point
- Road conditions and number of turns en route
- Number of miles and estimated journey times
