Parcelforce Worldwide has used the Paragon software to re-route its entire UK express distribution operation, producing plans for the daily delivery of 150,000 parcels. These plans not only help the company exceed the expectations of its 30,000 UK customers but they also exceed company expectations, reducing re-routing time by 90% and securing operation-wide savings.
As a result of introducing the new routes Parcelforce Worldwide is also experiencing significant benefits in the form of improved driver productivity, with a reported increase of 20% taking utilisation from 70% to 90% throughout the operation. "Improving driver productivity by 20% has enabled us to reduce both the number of drivers and the number of vehicles we need to use to achieve the same, if not higher, levels of service," says Eddie McBride of Parcelforce Worldwide. "Our work with Paragon really has delivered in a big way and everyone involved is very happy with the results."
