What’s new in v8.1 TG VRO?
Transportation Guru Vehicle Route
Optimization
Fleet Optimization: Identify efficient multi-stop
vehicle routes while optimizing fleet size
Continuous Moves Interleaved Shipments:
Interleaved pick-ups and drop-offs within
cohesive routes
Periodic Shipment Balancing & Scheduling:
Determine frequency, shipment schedule,
while balancing shipment deliveries across
horizon

Continuous Moves Interleaved Shipments
Optimization
• Interleaved pick-ups and drop-offs within cohesive routes, while considering right-sizing fleet and mode selection What can the Continuous
Moves Interleaved VRP solve?
•Create multi-stop routes that include pickups and deliveries interleaved throughout route to minimize costs while considering fleet costs and determining mode selection
What are the benefits?
Utilizing Continuous Moves Interleaved
VRP Optimization There are many ways to apply Interleaved VRP optimization
technology. Here are just a few examples:
Retailers can create routes that move product
between stores
Warehouses can transition inventory to other
facilities with inter-facility routes
New product and returns can be considered on one
route
3PL’s can consider delivery and pickup requests
during a single route

Fleet Optimization VRP
• Balance optimizing fleet size while identifying efficient multi-stop vehicle routes, maximizing utilization
What can the Fleet Optimization VRP solve?
• Asset costs considered in objective function in order to create multi-stop routes with the right fleet mix What are the benefits?
Utilizing Fleet Optimization VRP There are many ways to apply Fleet Optimization VRP technology.
Here are just a few examples:
Determine optimal private fleet size
Utilize optimization parameter to identify how many
assets are needed to run optimal routes
Minimize private fleet and 3PL carrier assets
Consider which carriers to use in addition to private
fleet

Periodic Shipment Balancing & Scheduling
•Scheduling optimization on top of standard VRP to identify how frequent and when to deliver or pickup on multi-stop routes while balancing shipments across a time period
What can the Periodic VRP solve?
•Determine schedule for multi-stop vehicle routes to minimize costs while adhering to scheduling requirements What are the benefits?
Utilizing Periodic VRP Optimization There are many ways to apply periodic VRP optimization
technology. Here are just a few examples:
Identify frequency of deliveries or pickups balancing
contract requirements and transportation costs
Determine delivery or pickup schedule for all locations
while considering transportation system constraints
Balance shipment schedule throughout the week
