Hazardous waste management company Enviroco Limited is implementing Paragon’s computerised route optimisation to simplify complex route planning and help it meet exacting service requirements across a UK-wide customer base.
The Enviroco system incorporates ITIS road speed data to give greater journey accuracy for mixed long haul and city driving. The software has reduced planning time from four days to a few hours and allows plans to be adjusted for urgent call-outs and last-minute changes requested by the customer.
“We collect packaged waste from customers across the UK. Collections vary in frequency from site to site, plus we have to deal with ad hoc requests and emergencies. Paragon brings new levels of accuracy to our route planning and it removes laborious manual processes. Our staff now have more time for customer service and to manage and improve our efficiencies,” says Howard Jonas, Enviroco Operations Director.
“Importantly, we start with efficient and accurate collection route plans and, whatever changes we have to make along the way, we know that the software will re-optimise the routes. It also allows us to run ‘what-if’ scenarios – for example, changing collection times to certain sites to see whether we can improve service further. The software shows exactly what is possible if we make these changes,” he adds.
