Paul's Day with Quintic: Optimizing Logistics and Overcoming Challenges (Full Transcript)

Speaker 1: Meet Paul. He's a logistics planner who's just started using Quintic, and he's looking forward to another great day at work. But wait, what's this? This should have been delivered yesterday. Checking with the Quintic system, Paul discovers a machine breakdown, so loading has been delayed. The system has already alerted the maintenance team, and they're working fast to get the machine operational again. In the meantime, Paul starts to re-plan the orders. He also informs a customer about the delay and new ETA. Back at the office, a rush order has just come in. No problem. Quintic processes the order and suggests the delivery routes. It then re-optimises the overall plan with the new order. Just when everything is back on track, a call comes in. A driver is stuck in traffic. Once again, he refers to Quintic. He chooses the best plan and routes and sends them to the driver. After lunch, Paul reviews the week's data. There seems to be a problem with a truck that has a very low loading rate. As the delivery is to a customer he knows well, Paul asks if it's okay for the order to be sent a few hours earlier. By applying his experience to the existing plan, he saves his company even more miles and money. Paul releases the new plan and the routes are sent to each driver. He then turns his attention to the upcoming holiday season. He runs some what-if scenarios to explore the best way to cope with increasing orders. That night, Paul checks in from home. The Quintic KPI app shows him how much the most recently optimised plan will advance his company's goals.
