Freight & parcel logistics in Scandinavia
Our customer, a leading global freight provider in a major Nordic country, needed a new automated tour planning system.
Greenplan won the official tender, beating several established tour planning and optimization providers.
To serve all customer needs we have designed and implemented a tailor-made business rule engine around our standard product.
Our customer was looking for ways to make their operations more efficient and, in particular, to increase working time utilization.
Greenplan reduced average travel times and distances for the maintenance staff allowing to process more orders every day and thus benefiting the customer's bottom line
Operating convenience stores on the West Coast in the US, our customer has to deal with fluctuating delivery volumes every day – and their current static planning approach was not capable to handle this efficiently.
This is where Greenplan supported them with a dynamic and automated planning approach, which helped them to not only reduce the amount of required tours and vehicles, but also to reduce manual and error-prone processes.
