Reduction of empty run in combined
cargo delivery problem
The customer set a task to investigate the possibility of reducing idle mileage in the transportation of dairy products between large transport hubs, in which large-scale transport is involved.
Planning was carried out for 2 weeks ahead.
In the calculations, the RAST redistributed the workload so that in the body of one vehicle instead of one or two orders, as before, there were an average of 4 or more orders simultaneously.

For a large cash collection company, the tasks of daily and strategic planning were calculated.
The main goal was to reduce the total and maximum delay to customers.

Research and rationale for the introduction of logistics schemes
In this case, a study of the effectiveness of the company's current business processes related to delivery was conducted, as well as analysis of prospective delivery schemes.
The following schemes were investigated:
Unbinding of points from fixed routes in the current scheme
Application of multiple routes for one vehicle per
day and additional optimization
Strategic planning for two weeks ahead with the
selection of the optimal day for fulfilling orders
Application of multiple routes for one vehicle per
day and additional optimization

selection of the optimal day for fulfilling orders
Using multiple routes:
