New: option costs per vehicle in planning algorithm

The Bumbal planning algorithm always optimises the routes to be planned for time and distance. Of course, this happens inside the set parameters, such as, for instance, window times and zones. Are you going to optimise planning ? With Bumbal you can choose from several principles for that optimisation:

  • deploy as few rides/ vehicles as possible
  • spread equally over all rides/vehicles available
  • optimise for capacity, for instance, weight or units or volume.

Optimising planning on costs

One new item is the possibility to optimise on costs per vehicle. One vehicle or driver perhaps costs more money than another. In Bumbal Transport Software you can now add parameters per vehicle or ride. This can be done per ride, time and kilometres. This means in concrete terms that per ride or vehicle you can make a difference in costs where the planning algorithm will, as much as possible, make use of vehicles/rides that are economical. In this way, you can even further fine-tune the optimum planning. Do you want to know more about the possibilities of Bumbal?
