Solutions for Mobile Workforce Routing and Vehicle Fleet Scheduling

Our software engine, VRSolver, automatically plans and optimises routes and schedules for mobile workforces, field-service engineers and other vehicle routing scenarios.

VRSolver integrates with existing applications to provide routing and scheduling automation.

Artificial Intelligence for Scheduling

  • Integration via an API or JSON data format
  • .NET Standard library that runs on Windows, Linux and macOS
  • Developed by research scientists who have previously conducted university level research and published scientific papers on automated scheduling and optimisation - including leading results on benchmark vehicle routing problems.

Customisable constraints and rules

  • Time-windows (hard and soft) on jobs/deliveries/visits/collections etc.
  • Time windows on vehicle/resource start and finish times
  • Resource working hours and driving durations
  • Multi-part jobs
  • Multiple vehicle capacity/handling constraints and job sizes and requirements
  • Pre-assignments and non-assignments
  • Mixed fleets with varying vehicle/resource speeds, capacities, road restrictions etc.
  • Multiple depots or vehicle/resource specific start and finish locations
  • Adjustable job service times
  • and more...

User-definable objectives

  • Minimise distances traveled (fuel costs)
  • Minimise working hours (wage costs)
  • Minimise resources/vehicles required
  • Minimise late arrivals
  • Minimise idle time
  • Or any combination of these objectives (and more) with user-defined priorities...

Other features

  • Developed to handle very large problems
  • No limits on the number of resources or jobs
  • Model various vehicle routing problems, pick-up and delivery problems and other variants
  • Dynamically query VRSolver as it is running to see the best solution found so far
  • Diagnostics and metrics on solutions generated
