Gradual introduction of global optimization

A transition from planning in fixed districts (geofences) to a global tour planning and optimization without districts is often difficult to achieve in a single step

Geofencing

Fixed & non-overlapping districts for each driver, stop sequences are optimized within these static districts

Tours stay in the same districts, drivers stays in known district, changes for dispatcher and customers are limited

Step 1: Fixed districts

Geofencing

Fixed & non-overlapping districts for each driver, stop sequences are optimized within these static districts

Tours stay in the same districts, drivers stays in known district, changes for dispatcher and customers are limited

Overlapping districts

Gradually enlarged and overlapping districts, some tour stops can be part of more than one district

Gained flexibility, volume-balancing, better time mgmt., drivers still operate in focused and known districts

Step 2-n: Overlapping districts

Overlapping districts

Gradually enlarged and overlapping districts, some tour stops can be part of more than one district

Gained flexibility, volume-balancing, better time mgmt., drivers still operate in focused and known districts

No districts

Tour structure and number of tours may vary from day to day

Driving time, driving distance, no. of tours and costs are fully optimized in regards to customer requirements, high robustness in case of e.g. driver sickness

Step n+1: No districts

No districts

Tour structure and number of tours may vary from day to day

Driving time, driving distance, no. of tours and costs are fully optimized in regards to customer requirements, high robustness in case of e.g. driver sickness

Common Questions

We advocate strongly for the protection of data. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has defined comprehensive data protection principles to standardize how data is collected and processed across countries. These include clarification around what constitutes “personal data”, requirements for explicit user consent to collect their personal data, standardization around the security of personal data, and the expansion of user rights with respect to their personal data.

In general, we advise our users to try to get out of the mindset of boundaries, territories, or geofences simply because they reduce the potential efficiency of the routes.

Consider this: If you have a large number of stops that straddle a fence, it may make more sense to have all of those stops served by a single driver.

Conversely, if you have a large number of orders on one side of a fence but that driver can’t handle all of them, then the fence should be redrawn to split that cluster of orders across the two drivers.

But, if you need geofences for your daily business, we are able to consider these constraints.
