GEOCOMtms, architect of the A.MAZE technology that simultaneously optimizes the routing and scheduling of fleet operations, announced that it has received the Purolator Technology Supplier Recognition Award 2002 in appreciation for the successful implementation and results achieved by its A.MAZE highly scalable solution.
In 2001, Purolator was looking to optimize their service territories and reduce their operations’ costs. The answer for them was the scalable A.MAZE constraint-based fleet route optimization solution from GEOCOMtms. During the supplier selection process, Purolator was looking for a minimum 5% improvement, for an area that they had already optimized. They obtained 7% through the A.MAZE constraint-based fleet route optimization solution from GEOCOMtms, which gave them the required value and ROI to move this project forward.
The A.MAZE solution has been deployed across the entire Canadian territory and has been showing an average of more than 11% reduction of number of couriers. Additionally, the productivity rate per zone, considered as an important performance coefficient at Purolator, improved by 4.5%.
