Track delivery performance in real-time & improve route planning accuracy
Link Paragon's route planning and delivery scheduling software with a GPS vehicle tracking system for a complete fleet management solution. With increased fleet visibility and live data you can optimize your schedules and improve route planning parameters to increase fleet productivity.
By combining the two technologies you are able to:
- See possible delivery day or time window failures for route revision and customer notification
- Send automatic alerts to customers when deliveries are imminent
- Build realistic routes based on actual delivery data
- Customize reports with planned vs. actual performance data
- Highlight and address exceptions and inefficiencies for continuous performance improvement
Fleet Controller, Paragon's fleet management software, provides the link to GPS vehicle tracking, enabling you to validate your transportation plan, check that routes are feasible and track performance of your fleet in real-time.
"I would have no qualms about recommending the use of Fleet Controller to other transport operators - it does what it says it will do; links planning with tracking for improved efficiency, reduces transport costs and improves customer service." Operations Director, InstarmacParagon's fleet management software can meet the requirements of your business with the added benefit of being able to interface with different technologies within the same fleet at the same time.
How is Fleet Controller Used?
- Validation of the Plan
Whether you plan your routes manually or use Paragon's automated optimizer, Fleet Controller calculates the delivery timings and travel mileage, warning you if any of the planned routes will miss promised time windows, overload the vehicle or violate driving regulations. - Execution of the Plan
Fleet Controller uses the GPS tracking link to monitor and record each vehicle's progress against its planned route. It can immediately determine whether there are any discrepencies and will alert you if an unexpected delay will result in a delivery being late for a time window later in the day. - Reporting
Fleet Controller gathers a complete and accurate picture of each vehicle's daily activity and compares it with what was planned. This enables immediate driver debrief and provides key exception reports for management. This data can then be used to improve routes and schedules accordingly.
