Route planning for service staff: Plan service visits flexibly, efficiently and in real time.
In the service sector, no two days are the same: new orders, breakdowns, rescheduled appointments or staff absences can quickly throw existing schedules into disarray. At the same time, route planning for service staff must take numerous requirements into account – from regions, locations and opening hours, through to fixed appointments and visit frequencies, right down to qualifications, spare parts, tools and maximum working hours.
With dynamic route planning for service calls, you can schedule service technicians and field staff much more efficiently. Assignments can be automatically optimised, rescheduled at short notice and intelligently allocated to available resources. This reduces the planning workload in the dispatch department, improves the utilisation of your service staff and enables you to respond more quickly to new demands in day-to-day operations.
The biggest challenges in the scheduling of service staff.
• Significant planning effort: Many orders have to be distributed across several employees, sites and regions.
• Complex order specifications: Fixed appointments, opening hours, visit intervals, set visiting days and ad hoc requests make planning difficult.
• Additional restrictions: Qualifications, tools, spare parts, working hours and accommodation must all be taken into account in the planning.
• Lack of flexibility: When changes arise at short notice, manual or rigid planning processes quickly reach their limits.
