Manage delivery schedules in real-time using GPS truck tracking linked with route optimization
Paragon's delivery routing and scheduling optimization has been interfaced with several leading truck tracking systems enabling you to manage your transportation schedules in real time.
This gives transportation managers instant visibility of how delivery schedules are progressing on the road, and also provides a clear picture of "plan versus actual" performance after the event.
Linking GPS truck tracking with transportation optimization intelligence in this way enables you to:
- Get early warning of potential late deliveries, caused by an earlier delay, so you can either take action or forewarn your customer
- See where drivers are deviating from planned routes and schedules
- Re-optimize second and subsequent loads to maintain efficiency levels in complex multi-shifted operations
- Keep your customer services department updated with estimated delivery times
- Give drivers an immediate debrief on their return, with the key plan versus actual information readily available
- Identify regular inefficiencies and take corrective action, to improve your on-going cost performance
- See where your customers are causing you delays
- Review and update your daily planning parameters, such as unloading rates, to improve your planning accuracy and reliability.
This can help you improve your customer delivery performance by managing it in real time, and reduce your ongoing transportation costs by correcting recurring inefficiencies.
