FLEET MANAGEMENT
For example, routing and scheduling software can provide vital information to the warehouse to make efficiency and productivity gains, while avoiding unnecessary disruption. Supplying the warehouse team with accurate order information in timely fashion removes the pressure to pick large volumes at the last moment and ensures that vehicles and drivers leave the depot on time. Meanwhile, allocating a vehicle to the right bay at the right time means that unnecessary loading delays can be prevented, and warehouse operatives are not left waiting around to complete order picks and work unnecessary overtime.

Drivers are a crucial part of any distribution operation, so why would a business not have them as a connected part of their supply chain? Bringing together an electronic proof of delivery (ePOD) and mobile job management tool with planning software means critical data can be automatically uploaded to a device, so a driver can access route manifests and call sequences. This assists the driver with their work for the day, while enabling real-time updates to customers and feeding fulfilment data back into the system. In fact, recent advances in map-based “track my driver” functionality allows businesses to provide their customers with access to live status updates on the progress of a delivery. Distribution operations then benefit from improved first-time delivery success, increased customer confidence and reduced inbound call volumes. A range of information is available, such as how many deliveries are left before an order arrives, providing the customer with accurate details about arrival times or windows so they can plan accordingly. With customers demanding faster, more convenient delivery, cheaper than ever before—coupled with the demand to reduce environmental impact and the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic—distribution operations have never faced more pressure. Having integrated systems in place that bring together the planning, transport, warehouse and driver functions can help deliver real savings, improve operational performance and meet the needs of customers.
