Client AreaDon’t just manage your driver and equipment resources – optimize them. You may feel like you have your hands tied with driver bids but optimized driver resource assignments for second and third dispatches pay off big on the bottom line. CAMS Prospero includes tools for constructing driver “tours”, building out a driver’s shift as efficiently and profitably as possible. This tool takes into account the driver hours available, overtime avoidance, store delivery windows and curfews.
Automatic tractor assignment can be accommodated using various customizable rules and predefined alerts and warnings let dispatchers know when a trailer type mismatch is about to happen. CAMS also integrates with equipment maintenance systems to reserve equipment that is scheduled for maintenance and flagging equipment currently in use to be removed from use upon return for preventative maintenance. This prevents dispatchers from assigning equipment that requires maintenance while ensuring the equipment is made available to the system as soon as it is serviced.
Finally, reports for driver efficiency, tractor utilization, and trailer utilization all come out-of-the-box with CAMS Prospero and customizable utilization reports for the enterprise are available with the CAMS Profiler reporting package.
