Kardinal Use case

# Territory Sectorization

For postal and parcel delivery companies, route optimization requires flexibility in sorting parcels, which is sometimes incompatible with conventional warehouse processes.

This is why these players use geographical sectorization, based on administrative divisions and the expertise of their operators.

With Kardinal, Depot Managers are empowered with tools to optimize sectorization, reduce operating costs and balance workloads within their teams.

## Optimized sectorization

Use the tool to divide your area into sectors and adjust your resources as accurately as needed based on your historical data.

## Manual edit

Create your current sectorization in the tool to compare it with others. Edit your sectorization manually to refine the sectors and test the impact of local modifications.

## Sectorization comparison

Compare your sectorization with the one optimized by the tool or any other simulation. Identify the operational and organizational impacts of your decisions before implementing them in the field.

## Kardinal's Secret Sauce

### **Manage volume volatility**

In the parcel delivery business, there is no such thing as a typical day. Kardinal forecasts many plausible scenarios based on reasonable assumptions, which allows us to plan for resources and routes that are highly possible.
