Last mile delivery
Last mile delivery is tricky and by far the most expensive part of the supply chain, accounting for as much as 30-50% of total delivery cost. And every failed delivery attempt, traffic jam or wrong turn drives up the costs even more. That’s why optimising last mile delivery is critical to overall efficiency and profitability.
Manual planning is unable to consider the various factors and restrictions impacting last mile delivery. That’s why route optimisation software like PTV Route Optimiser is essential for efficient last mile delivery. The software uses algorithms to assign shipments to routes and vehicles, creates a schedule for the whole fleet and calculates optimised routes.
