Excessive Mileage und nicht optimierte Fahrtrouten
Definition
ABS Bonifer explicitly reported 'Decreased mileage' as a measurable result of PDI WinDMS implementation. For a 450-vehicle fleet in 7 countries, manual scheduling created suboptimal route clusters. Automated optimization typically yields 12–18% mileage reduction through sequencing algorithms. At €0.60/km (fuel €0.35 + maintenance €0.25), reducing annual mileage by 8,000–12,000 km per vehicle saves €4,800–€7,200 per vehicle per year.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: €12,000–€25,000 per tanker truck annually (15–20% route inefficiency × typical operational cost); for a 200-vehicle fleet: €2.4M–€5M annual mileage waste
- Frequency: Continuous, daily accumulation
- Root Cause: Manual route assignment without optimization; lack of real-time vehicle positioning; sequential delivery assignment (chronological) rather than spatial optimization; no automated consolidation of nearby deliveries
