Routing, Scheduling and Optimization        

Situation
Cardinal, a leading Dedicated and Delivery Fleet provider wanted a tool that could serve a dual purpose: both as a robust, strategic planning tool for their design and engineering staff, and as a day-to-day tactical tool for their customers.                                

Quality Technology
	"myLogistics continues to provide Cardinal with quality technology. Their real-world experience and flexibility allow us to implement  solutions quickly and effectively. Our customers love the increased efficiency, visbility and informational content created through Cardinal's use of myLogistics' tools." Cardinal Logistics, CEO

Solution
Cardinal installed multiple copies of myRoutes locally at their HQ for the use of their Design and Engineering teams. In addition, the tool was installed on-site at a few key customers, integrated with their ERP systems and utilized for their tactical day-to-day routing and scheduling needs.

Benefits

• Cardinal Engineers:
• Provide optimized and operationally feasible solutions for the pre-sales environment, providing efficient and competitive request for proposals (RFPs).
  
• Benchmark existing operations and run multiple "what-if" analysis, contributing to Cardinal's continuous improvement initiatives.
• Support field operations on their day-to-day routing and scheduling needs.

• Pre-planned solutions are easily transferred to the field because the same tool is used for execution. Parameters and attributes are consistent with the originally designed solution and the same engineers who are familiar with the project are available for implementation.
  
  
• The tool optimizes for multi-stop truckload and LTL consolidation while balancing the resource utilization needs of a dedicated fleet operation...cost savings of 15% or more are common.
