MobileLink, Dispatch and Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL)

• Descartes MobileLink, Dispatch and Automated Vehicle Locator (AVL) solutions help integrate planning, dispatch, delivery status and wireless communications. 
• Provides delivery dispatch, monitoring and two-way wireless communications
• Descartes MobileLink provides integrated two-way wireless communication and passive monitoring capabilities for enhanced logistics execution. By combining route planning and a free flow of information between dispatchers and the field, Descartes MobileLink extends the traditional route planning process and provides real-time visibility into the execution of the plan. Descartes Dispatch facilitates the assignment and execution of multiple or same-day pick-ups and deliveries. Descartes AVL helps improve customer responsiveness through real-time status updates, forward predictability and enhanced exception alerting, which can reduce the need to track every aspect of a schedule and instead emphasize the implications of service interruptions and exceptions.
