BisTrack Trimble Integration

Trimble Multi-Vehicle Route Optimization, CoPilot, and PC*Miler seamlessly integrate with BisTrack Journey Planner. This powerful combination automates the process of creating the most efficient routes for a list of orders and stop locations.

To optimize these routes further, AI and ML is leveraged to consider real-time traffic conditions, road closures, and other dynamic factors.

Trimble Multi Vehicle Routing

Revolutionize your fleet, maximize efficiency and lower costs. BisTrack integrates with Trimble Multi Vehicle Routing (MVR) to streamline the manual process of creating efficient routes for orders and stop locations.

Built on PC*MILER's industry standard commercial routing logic, Trimble's MVR optimizes routes while considering the daily challenges faced by fleets. This includes managing order flow, resources, and meeting strict customer time windows and service-level agreements

Benefits for Multi Vehicle Routing

Efficient Route Planning

Trimble automatically generates optimal routes for fleets—considering order flow, resources, and customer time windows. This solution includes Trimble Commercial Truck Routing, tailored to the unique needs of commercial trucking operations.

Enhanced Safety and Compliance

Risk Mitigation: Creates truck routing profiles that consider vehicle dimensions and load types, reducing the risk of accidents and ensuring compliance with safety regulations.
Proactive Maintenance: Offers insights into vehicle health and performance, enabling preventive maintenance and reducing downtime.

Fuel Efficiency: Optimizes routes to minimize fuel consumption, leading to significant cost savings.
Accident Prevention: Reduces the risk of costly accidents through safer routing and proactive maintenance.

Optimized Efficiency

Smart Routing: Automatically generates efficient routes tailored to vehicle dimensions, load types, and traffic conditions, minimizing travel time and fuel consumption.
Real-Time Updates: Provides dynamic route adjustments based on real-time traffic information, ensuring optimal efficiency and minimizing delays.

Improved Fleet Management

Real-Time Visibility: Provides real-time tracking of vehicle locations, performance, and driver behavior, enabling better fleet management and resource allocation.
Data-Driven Insights: Offers actionable data and analytics to optimize fleet operations and identify areas for improvement.

Enhanced Customer Service

On-Time Deliveries: Ensures timely and accurate deliveries, improving customer satisfaction and loyalty.
Improved Communication: Provides real-time updates on delivery status, enhancing customer communication and transparency.

Scalability and Flexibility

Adaptability: Easily accommodates growing fleet sizes and complex routing requirements, ensuring the solution can scale with your business.
Customization: Offers customizable features and integrations to meet specific business needs and preferences.
Flexibility: Users have full control over the recommended route, allowing them to adjust it to fit their unique business requirements.

Simplifying Complex Truck Routing

At its core, MVR solves the problem of routing several trucks with many stops on a particular day.

It receives data about the current state for a fleet, such as:

Orders (pickups or deliveries)
Trucks routing
Rules/constraints

The algorithm then considers constraints like:

Vehicle capacity (deck space, weight limits)
Account time windows (SLAs)
Special equipment types
Fleet size mixes
Others

Finally, MVR integrates with BisTrack’s Journey Planner application to provide an optimal route plan for execution on any given day.

CoPilot: Turn-by-turn in vehicle navigation

Trimble CoPilot is an in-vehicle navigation app that works with Trimble MVR to offers easy-to-follow turn-by-turn directions, traffic updates, points of interest, and other advanced features.

Simplified navigation: Provides easy-to-follow turn-by-turn directions for individual drivers.
Advanced features: Includes features such as traffic updates, points of interest, and lane guidance to enhance navigation.
Integration with mobile devices: Can be used on smartphones and tablets for convenient access.
User-friendly interface: Intuitive design and easy-to-use features make it accessible to all drivers.

Leveraging AI and ML Technology

Trimble is leveraging AI and ML to enhance its transportation and logistics solutions. By employing sophisticated algorithms, Trimble can provide advanced features such as weather alerts, real-time traffic rerouting, and accurate ETAs. These capabilities are essential for optimizing routes and ensuring efficient operations.

Trimble Automated Map Improvements (TAMI): Trimble’s TAMI team utilizes AI to identify and resolve map-related issues at scale.
Probe Data Analytics: Algorithms utilizing anonymized probe data and other ground truth sources classify roads to enable better costing, route planning and last mile navigation.
Satellite Image Processing: Computer Vision models analyze satellite images to detect missing roads, geometry corrections and intersection turn difficulty.

PC*MILER: Industry standard commercial truck routing, mileage, and mapping

PC*Miler is a powerful tool designed to optimize individual routes and provide detailed information for your trips. It offers a comprehensive suite of features, including:

Accurate distance and time calculations: Get precise estimates for your routes, ensuring that you arrive on time and avoid unnecessary detours.

Detailed map data: Access up-to-date maps and routing profiles, including information on roads, traffic conditions, and points of interest.

Cost estimation: Calculate fuel costs, tolls, and other expenses associated with your trips, helping you manage your budget effectively.

Safe and Compliant Routing: Unique routing logic that takes into account commercial truck dimensions such as height, weight, and width to provide compliant routes and associated mileages.

Unlike Trimble's Multi-Vehicle Routing, which is designed for optimizing routes for entire fleets, PC*Miler is focused on providing individual route planning solutions. This makes it ideal for solo drivers, small businesses, or anyone who needs to plan routes for a single vehicle.
