DIESMAR implements LOGISPLAN to optimise its distribution routes
DIESMAR implements LOGISPLAN to improve the efficiency of its HORECA distribution operations.
DIESMAR, a leading distributor to the HORECA sector, has decided to evolve its logistics management with LOGISPLAN, the route optimisation software developed by Evolution Algorithms.
The aim is to improve distribution efficiency, reduce transport costs and achieve more agile, controlled planning across the fleet and resources.
A growing route-planning challenge
Pressure to improve margins and service quality led DIESMAR to rethink how it plans and carries out its distribution operations.
Growth in activity, operational complexity and the need to meet schedules, restrictions and service requirements made it essential to have an advanced tool capable of automating and optimising logistics planning.
The main challenges identified included:
- Planning routes with multiple deliveries and strict time windows.
- Balancing loads and service times at each stop.
- Reducing costs in urban and interurban delivery operations.
- Responding quickly to order changes or incidents.
A project based on real data
After an initial meeting with the Evolution Algorithms team, LOGISPLAN was presented with a focus on analysing the company's specific operational challenges.
LOGISPLAN automated the planning and optimisation of delivery routes.
Using this information, the technical team prepared different optimisation simulations and scenarios to confirm that LOGISPLAN was suitable for meeting the company's logistics-planning needs.
What does LOGISPLAN bring to logistics optimisation?
LOGISPLAN is advanced route optimisation software designed for the transport and logistics sector. The system automatically calculates the optimal routes and loads for each vehicle in the fleet, taking into account multiple constraints and operational variables.
The solution can take into account factors such as:
- Delivery and collection time windows.
- Vehicle capacities and types.
- Technical and regulatory constraints.
- Operating costs.
- Driver schedules.
- Load optimisation.
- Fixed, scheduled or charter services.
LOGISPLAN also integrates with the company's ERP systems and corporate platforms, enabling automated information exchange and full automation of the planning process.
Project objectives
DIESMAR's adoption of LOGISPLAN is part of a clear roadmap:
- Automating daily HORECA delivery planning.
- Optimising routes and delivery sequences.
- Improving compliance with service schedules.
Expected results and benefits
Implementing an advanced optimisation solution such as LOGISPLAN will give the company much more efficient and flexible planning.
The main expected benefits include:
- Lower delivery operating costs.
- Greater efficiency on last-mile delivery routes.
- Better service levels for HORECA customers.
The use of advanced optimisation algorithms also makes it possible to analyse multiple scenarios and identify more efficient operating configurations, helping the company size its logistics resources correctly.
Technology for more efficient logistics
DIESMAR's decision to implement LOGISPLAN reflects the industry's move towards more digital, measurable and efficiency-driven operations.
Evolution Algorithms supports the company throughout this process, helping turn logistics planning into a genuine competitive advantage.
Frequently asked questions
How does LOGISPLAN help optimise routes for HORECA distribution?
LOGISPLAN automatically calculates optimal routes and loads while considering operational constraints, time windows, vehicle capacities and costs, enabling DIESMAR to plan HORECA distribution more accurately.
Can tests be carried out with real data before implementation?
Yes. Evolution Algorithms can prepare simulations using real DIESMAR operational data to validate results and fine-tune the configuration before full deployment.
Does LOGISPLAN integrate with the company's existing systems?
LOGISPLAN can integrate with ERP systems and corporate platforms to automate the exchange of orders, resources and planning results, reducing manual work.
