Optimization of bike courier services
Abstract
The software LOBO is capable to deal with the whole office administration of a bike courier service. At the moment (27/06/2017) the software is used by 17 clients in Austria, Germany, Netherlands, Denmark, Spain, Italy, Hungary and Poland. In total, about 10,000 dispatches are performed via the system monthly. The aim of this project is to estimate the potential and effort of an implementation of a computer-aided decision support system in the daily dispatching. It is important to estimate operational savings by qualitatively better decisions, which should improve the market position of the software. The project deals with project analyses, data collection and the conception of such a decision support system. The project focusses on mat- and metaheuristic solution methods for the problem. Especially important is the processing and integration of dynamic changes.
