A cloud platform for mobile workforces is releasing it’s advanced route optimisation to help fleets cope with Auckland’s severe traffic problems.
Founded by Sam Morgan in 2011 vWork is a cloud-based mobile workforce enterprise platform located in Auckland.
It has more 170 business clients in over 30 countries including Toll Holdings, McCarthy Transport and The Warehouse Group.
Director and majority shareholder, Morgan says it is a game changer for fleets looking to combat Auckland’s congestion, which destroys business margins, “not to mention the mental health of professional drivers.”
“Advanced Route Optimisation allows dispatchers to enter all the work they need to do that day – pick-ups, deliveries, and service calls – and then our algorithms will define the most efficient set of run-sheets for their drivers,” says vWork chief executive Brendon Petrich.
“Our analysis shows that fleets which schedule jobs manually spend 20% more time on the road than they need to – simply because the complexity of scheduling thousands of jobs across hundreds of vehicles is beyond any human,” says Petrich.
Full details of this new development will be available in the next issue of DIESELtalk magazine on Monday 16 January.
