Remodel last-mile delivery networks and build reliable fixed routes that adapt to fluctuating sales volumes.
Adapt Routes to Anticipated Demand
Recut fixed routes more frequently: No more seasonal bottlenecks or half-empty trucks.

- Balance routes around holidays.
- Model changes in order volume.
Increase Service Levels, Reduce Costs
Build cost-effective routes without under-servicing or over-servicing clients.
- Optimize delivery frequency.
- Select the optimal delivery day.
- Discover the best depot to serve each stop.
Future Proof Your Fleet
Make data-driven decisions for control over long-term fleet costs. Test scenarios such as:
- Changing fleet size and vehicle types.
- Closing or opening a new depot.
- Adding a new customer.
- Increasing or decreasing driver hours.
Reduce Planning Time
Optimize territories, frequencies, delivery days and routes at the same time.
There’s no need to guess the ideal frequency and territories before sequencing routes.

Distributors and Retailers Deliver with Descartes
“One thing that no other routing software we looked at could meet was our business rules. Descartes handled that from the start. We can balance time, we can balance weight while still following all of our rules, and then also balance any overlap so we don't have drivers passing over each other.”
RANDY ROBINSON
Operational Excellence Specialist, Gateway Services Inc.
"We were able to log information such as pickup windows and days of service, which allowed us to strategically optimize our routes and make sure that we were getting the most out of our assets and logistics network."
