A delivery schedule of 20 stops has over a quadrillion possible routing paths, with weather, rate of consumption, time constraints and so many other factors, drivers are in positions of stress with many possible options for their next turn. Equip drivers with the Energy Force Optimizer system that schedules them to be the most efficient version of themselves.

Make it Your Own

As demand rises throughout the heating season, the number of critical tanks also increases. In these busy weeks, it's crucial to adhere closely to Optimizer schedules and understand what your technology can do to avoid backlogs of critical gallons.

Features for Convenience

Did you know you can manipulate certain settings and use them to achieve desired routing behavior? Features such as Far Tank and Also Consider Ranges can be personalized to direct the Optimizer to reflect driving styles and preferences.

Establishing Tank Groups is also beneficial in scenarios where delivery to additional tanks aligns with the schedule of a specific tank. In the event of multiple tanks in difficult-to-access locations that require extra attention from drivers when navigating, it is practical to fill them at the same time. Instances where farms may request that all tanks be delivered while on the property or at their facilities are another great use for tank groups.

Additionally, you can enhance your capabilities to assign extra trucks to routes under high stress loads and introduce custom start locations, such as a driver’s home, for example. Reports such as Seasonal Analysis and Scenario Analysis also equip you with the knowledge of where and how to elevate your business. Seasonal Analyses identifies possible problems and compares performance over time, and Scenario Analysis pinpoints possible locations to install a new fill location or truck assignment.

Route rebalances will shift tanks between routes to provide optimal delivery capability and even driver workloads across all routes. These rebalances can include route reductions to resolve lighter workloads.
