Automated planning of transport routes
When planning truck routes, our customer was dependent on individual solutions. With a prototype that can be quickly and easily integrated into the existing infrastructure, we were able to optimize and standardize this process.
Task: Plan transport routes quickly and efficiently
One of our customer's core processes was a largely manual task: employees spent a lot of their time planning truck routes as efficiently as possible. A task that each user solved differently. Our goal was to standardize this process and thus save valuable resources.
Solution: Flexibly deployable prototype for automation
With the involvement of data scientists, internal business process analysts, and the users who would work with our solution, we developed an automation prototype that could be seamlessly integrated into the company's IT infrastructure.
We took over all phases of the project development - from the needs analysis to the planning and development of the prototype to the complete system integration and training of all employees who were to work with the finished solution.
Result: More efficient and user-friendly processes
We developed a reusable data science model that can be integrated into any infrastructure with little effort. Analyzing UI usage at an early stage helped us identify and integrate the most important functions in advance.
When it comes to automation processes, it is not always easy to reconcile the company's goals and the users' wishes. However, rapid iteration with fast feedback loops resulted in motivated prototype users and a solution that everyone is happy with.
