At this year’s Commercial Vehicle show, visitors have the opportunity to see Paragon Software Systems’ truck routing software in action, and see how it can be used for daily route optimisation, strategic analysis, fixed route planning and home delivery scheduling.
Coupled with Paragon’s low-bridge avoidance option, the solution eliminates the need to manually input physical limitations. The solution can also interface with Google’s map display, which provides useful information about traffic conditions affecting planned routes.
William Salter, Managing Director at Paragon Software Systems, said, “Paragon remains focused on its commitment to developing and implementing solutions that support the changing needs of today’s transport operators.
“Fleet operators have realised that effective use of routing and scheduling software not only improves efficiencies and service levels, but also provides a good return on investment by reducing cost.”
Visitors to the Show saw how linking the Paragon solution to the fleet’s tracking system gives managers real-time vehicle performance visibility and enables schedule adjustments to be made if a vehicle encounters an unforeseen problem. It also enables fleet managers to compare planned versus actual schedules in terms of the route taken and arrival and departure times.
Overall, the solution makes the transport plan more realistic with more reliable customer delivery times, and more achievable.
