What parameters/constraints does Telogis Route consider when optimizing routes?
The most optimal solution is one that can balance profitability with customer service. Telogis Route takes into account all business rules, resource capabilities, and customer requirements. In addition to the default constraints, Telogis Route allows users to add any custom constraints needed. Here are just a few examples:Drivers
- Work Hours, Wages, and Breaks
- Custom Attributes/Skills (i.e. license type, certifications, security clearance, etc.)
- Territory/customer assignment
- Fixed and variable factors (i.e. fuel type, fuel cost, mpg, “pull out” costs, depreciation costs, cost per mile, capacity, loading/unloading times, etc.)
- Custom Attributes (i.e. lift gate, refrigerated, bucket lift, etc.)
- Custom Restrictions such as driver requirements
- Time Windows and priorities
- Driver Requirements (i.e. requested driver, technical certifications, security clearance, etc.)
- Equipment Requirements (i.e. location restrictions, lift gate, refrigerated, bucket lift, etc.)
