Optimal planning of tourist transfer routes (transfers)
By means of intelligent route optimization algorithms, the maximum productivity of the available fleet is obtained, guaranteeing compliance with schedules, this is achieved by optimally planning tourist transfers using the software LOGISPLAN
Customers: Benidorm Group, TUI, Dipesa, IbizaTours, Transunion, Central coach, Nexus Tours
Company profile: passenger transport companies, both those that generally make transfers from the airport to hotels and vice versa, and those that perform discretionary services such as tourist excursions and school routes.
The challenge
The sector needed a tool that would allow to optimally plan the transfers, excursions and other services to be carried out. The main challenge was the great differences that can occur at different times of the year. The system had to contemplate the entire agreement of this sector, calculating costs of the day, breaks between hours, payment of luggage, as well as the distribution of accumulated work and salaries received throughout the season, etc.
The solution
LOGISPLAN is an intelligent system that allows automating the route planning process optimizing the use of the available fleet in terms of working hours, empty journeys and other parameters. In addition, the system takes into account most of the logistical restrictions in the sector as a base and allows the parameterization of new specific conditions for each company.
The benefits
- Automation of the planning process with the consequent saving in working time and, therefore, greater independence from expert personnel.
- Minimization of route costs in terms of kilometers, hours of work, etc. which results in a greater productivity of the company.
- Increase of guarantees and security in compliance with regulations and logistic restrictions.
- Increase in the quality of the service due to the improvement in meeting schedules and other conditions.
- Efficient response to last minute changes.
- Reduction of CO2 emissions by minimizing Km and, as a consequence, improving the carbon footprint.
