Does this scenario at a food distribution company sound familiar? You're a hardworking dispatch manager for a growing food distribution company. You love your job, but lately you've been really stressed out trying to manage your team's routes with an outdated product that doesn't account for the fleet's constraints. Or maybe you're the firm's CFO.

You need to know how profitable the fleet is and find ways to be more efficient right now. Creating reports takes days to complete and even then you're not sure that the data is current. No matter what your role, you need accurate information on the fleet's performance.

Aptean Routing and Scheduling can help. With Aptean, it's easy to create optimized routes that take your available fleet and resources into consideration. Aptean Routing and Scheduling was created with food distributors in mind.

Features like dispatch smoothing allow food distributors to work within their constraints. Hybrid routing allows you to create automatic routing for static routes, late, emergency and off day deliveries.

Dispatch managers quickly get achievable optimized routes that account for any fleet customer or driver limitations. CFOs can generate reports in minutes that will give in-depth granular snapshots of things like transportation costs as a percentage of revenue or cost-per-case delivered. Your routing software combined with in-cab telematics, links your route plan directly to the drivers and vehicles.

Then daily performance reviews get updated with accurate execution information, which allows you to analyze and continuously improve your operational efficiencies. You get optimal routes, reduced costs and happier customers. Imagine your fleet more profitable and more efficient. Make it real with Aptean.
