Dispatch Optimization Interfaces.
McLeod Software's Dispatch Optimization interfaces provide seamless integration to Manhattan Associates Driver & Load Solution, Match Advice of IDSC and Pilots+TM Transport Dynamics, Inc., two top dispatch optimization applications. The interface provides information continually to the application software by adding loads, updating driver hours, dispatch tractors, scheduling driver off time, etc.
Dispatch optimization matches loads with tractors for the purpose of maximizing revenue and minimizing empty and out-of-route miles while satisfying business requirements. Based on selected criteria, load matching finds the best-matched load(s) for a given tractor, or the best-matched tractor(s) for a given load. The criteria may be driver proximity to the load, driver preferences, drive availability, and/or equipment specifications.
The interface also provides a variety of reports to allow you to see the distribution and/or status of tractors and loads.
