Kardinal Use case
Parcel Sorting
The sorting of parcels before loading the trucks involves defining 1) to which area a parcel belongs to and 2) at which stage of the route the parcel will be delivered, to load it in the right position on the truck.
Both operations require a high level of field expertise. This is why it is often the drivers who sort the packages, which adds to an already busy day.
With Kardinal, parcel sorting no longer depends on field expertise. Sorting is faster and less time-consuming, and Depot Managers can decide to have the parcels sorted by Pickers, reducing the workload of the drivers.
Parcel Allocation
Get sorting assistance when scanning parcels to identify which route they belong to with powerful real-time geocoding capabilities.
Truck Loading Assistance
Get information at a more detailed level (each cell represents a sub-section of the route) to load the truck in the right order.
Kardinal's Secret Sauce
Division of the Territory into “Cells”
Kardinal’s route zones are not simply geographic areas, but have an underlying sequence of districts (“cells”) to tour. Thus, any parcel can be assigned to a district, which is essential information for the sorting process.
Business Impacts
Organizational Agility
Automation enables daily sectorization changes while ensuring that operations keep up.
Improved Working Conditions
Relieve pressure on your teams and lighten drivers’ day.
Better Productivity
As picking & sorting can be done faster, or by others, drivers can spend more time making deliveries.
