FAQ: Frequently asked questions about the savings calculator
The calculator compares your current route planning with a potential optimization scenario. Based on your inputs, you can see how an assumed level of savings could affect travel distances, time, costs, and CO₂ emissions. This gives you an initial estimate of the potential financial benefits of optimizing your routes.
The savings achievable in practice depend on your individual starting point. In addition to route distances and durations, factors such as order structure, vehicle utilization, and operational requirements play an important role.
- Routes and travel distances The number, length, and structure of your existing routes influence how much optimization is possible.
- Orders and vehicle utilization Order distribution and vehicle utilization affect how efficiently deliveries can be consolidated into routes.
- Time and operational constraints Delivery time windows, stop durations, vehicle restrictions, and delivery requirements can further influence route planning.
- Cost structure Costs per kilometre, vehicle operating costs, and driver costs determine the financial impact of potential improvements.
The results are calculated estimates based on your inputs and the assumed savings percentage. Actual savings can only be assessed through a more detailed analysis of your routes and operational requirements.
