Description

A logistics management web platform that optimizes transportation route planning. Designed for distribution companies, the platform combines optimization algorithms with an intuitive interface that allows managing truck fleets, delivery zones, and generating efficient automatic routes.

Challenge

Logistics companies faced a complex process when planning daily distribution routes. Manual planning required simultaneously considering load capacity, special licenses (such as ADR transport), zone restrictions, distance optimization, and delivery time windows. This process consumed hours of work each day, resulting in overloaded vehicles, inefficient routes, regulatory non-compliance, and lack of visibility of operational status in real-time.

Solution

We developed a web platform that combines algorithmic intelligence with manual control. The system allows registering fleets with detailed specifications, defining distribution zones, and creating a load catalog. An intelligent algorithm generates optimized routes considering capacities, special licenses, and zone restrictions. It includes a drag & drop board that allows reassigning merchandise between vehicles with real-time validations, and an operational dashboard for monitoring shipments and performance metrics. The platform reduces planning time from hours to minutes, improving operational efficiency.
