Delivery time windows, unpredictable traffic, vehicle capacity variations, driver work hours, and various costs like taxes, toll fees, driver charges, waiting charges, loading and unloading charges, all add complexities to transportation.
These complexities cannot be managed optimally with manual excel sheets or traditional Scm applications. SCMworx Vehicle Route Scheduler with meta-heuristics algorithms can handle them with ease to minimize costs while meeting Service Level Agreements.
