Our solution for your challenges

Those working in courier, express and parcel delivery services face many challenges every day: it takes a long time for drivers to become fully trained and acquainted with the fixed delivery area assigned to them. In addition, the high volumes of orders and busy roads make it increasingly difficult to comply with statutory driving times.

Multistop Pathfinder supports you by:

Evenly distributing orders by route instead of by delivery area
Loading the vehicle using loaders without drivers needing to be present, allowing drivers more actual driving time
Enabling any driver to drive any route thanks to the navigation system and load compartment unloading display
Avoiding congestion and reducing fuel consumption by means of dynamic route planning
Assisting drivers who are not familiar with an area through the system-supported navigation system
Offering a fully integrated system that is always available and requires no external hardware

Makes day-to-day work easier

You will see noticeable improvements across all areas of your company, including reduced costs and simplified workflows.

For dispatchers

The dispatcher enters specifications into the system, such as daily requirements and the day’s destinations. These specifications are processed using artificial intelligence and up-to-date parameters such as traffic and the customer’s general delivery conditions are applied. This allows the system to optimally distribute the deliveries across different routes. All that’s left for the dispatcher to do is assign the different routes to the loaders using the associated numbers. While deliveries are being made, the dispatcher always maintains an overview of the location of the loaded vehicle and the estimated delivery time.

For loaders

For drivers

As soon as the driver has launched Multistop Pathfinder in the vehicle, the app downloads the corresponding route data from the cloud and begins navigation. During the journey, the system continuously updates the route using the latest traffic data and delivery requests. As soon as the driver arrives at a delivery address, the system displays the shelf compartment number to enable rapid retrieval.

Greater flexibility with intelligent load compartment management

Intelligent load compartment management is another helpful feature of Multistop Pathfinder. It allows the vehicle to be loaded and unloaded by different people, even when the delivery order changes at short notice. The shelves are divided into smaller compartments for this purpose. During loading, a suitable shelf compartment number is proposed. If the loader places the item for delivery somewhere else, they simply scan the number of the chosen compartment. At the time of unloading, the corresponding shelf compartment number is displayed to enable rapid retrieval.
