Project prerequisites
High level of logistics costs. Top management decided to reduce costs by 10%.
High level of mileage to be reduced by 5%.
Lack of statistical data to calculate the delivery cost per 1 kg of delivered products.
Project progress
Integration of ABM Rinkai TMS functionality
Routes for 4 types of products were planned, taking into account the temperature conditions of each product. We also took into account the specifics of the vehicle fleet.
Working with employees
Working with branch staff and making about 2,000 changes to the OMS map to update truck restrictions. This made the planned routes 100% realistic and not in violation of traffic rules.
Data harmonization
We adjusted the geographic coordinates of the points so that the routes loaded into the app would lead the driver to the desired building and directly to the ramp.
Customizing analytics
The project customized over 20 new schedules and 17 metrics to effectively meet project goals, including driver and department-wide evaluation metrics.
Scaling the system to other branches of the company (UAE, Serbia)
Implementation results
ABM TMS
Results achieved for Myronivsky Hliboproducts
As a result of the project, the actual mileage was almost identical to the planned mileage. In addition, the adaptation of new drivers was greatly simplified and there was no need for two weeks of training with a more experienced driver to memorize routes.
