The Influence of Norma Live on Last-Mile Logistics:

Improve your route planning.

Every region has its own set of traffic laws. Certain routes and times of day may be prohibited for delivery vehicles.

Norma Live considers all of the data, combine it with traffic forecasts, and generates the most efficient route for each vehicle. Simply define the term "optimization" for yourself. Depending on your goals and business model, this could be a reduction in leased vehicles, a reduction in kilometers traveled, an increase in tones per mile, or a decrease in tones per mile. You can also choose to meet all delivery SLAs regardless of capacity.

Keep delivery dates

Norma Live will assist eCommerce businesses by generating the most efficient route plan that adheres to delivery deadlines and provides different delivery time frames based on location.

When your customer base grows, this becomes more complicated. All while keeping the capacity constraints of your single-type or mixed-type fleet in mind. Each vehicle can make one or more trips per day.

Determine the necessary number of vehicles


If statistics show that a higher proportion of last-mile delivery locations in one region have chosen same-day delivery while customers in other regions have not, Norma Live will issue an alert. This method ensures that an adequate number of vehicles are always available.
