Case study
Areatrans
Areatrans is a logistics company with extensive experience and a long history in national transportation, positioning itself as a modern, flexible company adapted to the demands of the market and its customers.
The Challenge
Areatrans was looking for the implementation of a delivery planning and tracking software for urban last mile hubs in Madrid.
Initial project for distribution using 30 mixed vehicles in urban hubs. Interest in expanding to a fleet of 50 vehicles.
Quality of service and sustainability are also key aspects for the company.
The main problems in the operation before implementing the solution were:
Project year: 2022
Modules: LRoute optimizer + Real-time tracking + Carrier app
Vehicles: 30 vehículos
Delegations: Madrid
Distribution type: paquetería de última milla
- Planning was done manually and the drivers themselves decided on the routes.
- The preparation of the orders to be loaded on the vehicles did not know whether they were going to the yard or to the dock until the last moment.
The status of deliveries was known only to the drivers, so calls between salesmen and drivers were very common.
"With the work on resource optimization, route planning and real-time delivery tracking we have managed to improve our distribution, optimizing costs and improving the quality of service in last mile distribution."
