Route Optimisation with GPS: Saving Time and Money for Your Business

Route optimisation means completing the same work with less driving. GPS tracking supports it by showing how routes are really driven and by giving dispatchers live positions to plan around.

Last reviewed

Planned versus actual

Comparing the planned route with the recorded journey reveals avoidable detours, repeated trips to the same area and stops that run longer than expected.

Better job sequencing

Grouping jobs by area and ordering them sensibly is often the single biggest gain. Historic journey data shows typical travel times between areas at different times of day.

Live adjustments

When a job is cancelled or an urgent one is added, dispatchers can see which vehicle is best placed to absorb the change.

Measuring the result

  • Distance driven per job
  • Average arrival-time accuracy
  • Jobs completed per vehicle per day
  • Fuel used per job
