Prepared for Marc, Operations director, Transports Lévrier

Routes planned the night before, a hub opening in the spring.

You have been running operations at Transports Lévrier for three weeks, and the company is opening a 40,000 m² hub in the spring. In the first few months you often find routes planned the night before, by hand. Here is what Tracé would look at first for you.

For Marc

What Tracé looks at first for you

1

Routes calculated, not guessed

Tracé builds tomorrow’s routes from orders, time windows and vehicles in a few minutes, and the planner adjusts.

How long does planning take every evening, and who does it when that person is away?
2

Empty kilometres

Every week, the kilometres driven empty and the routes that could have been merged, costed.

What share of your kilometres are driven empty, in your view, before measuring?
3

The new hub

The hub built into the routes before it opens: zones, docks, slots, so that day one looks like day ten.

Which flows will go through the new hub from opening day?

Getting started

Week 1

Your current routes replayed in Tracé, gaps shown.

Month 1

Tomorrow’s routes calculated, adjusted by your planners.

Before spring

The hub integrated, routes ready for the opening.

Shall we fix the routes before the opening?

Thirty minutes on a call: one week of your routes, what Tracé would do with them, and what it changes for the hub.
