WHAT WE BUILT
Ordering The Day
Picking the stops is the easy half. Putting them in a sensible order is the part that costs a depot an hour every morning, so the software does it: the server works out how long it takes to get between every pair of stops, orders the day around those times rather than around distance on a map, and pins the depot as stop one.
When no mapping provider is configured, or one goes down mid-plan, the day is ordered on estimates instead and the panel says so. A bad afternoon at a provider makes the ordering rougher rather than stopping the depot.
Built For A Van
Big targets, high contrast, and the two things a driver needs on the same screen as the map. Guidance keeps running with the phone face down, and music ducks for the turn instead of stopping.
Today, And Nothing Else
The office can plan any date it likes. The handset only ever serves the current one, so there is no date picker to get wrong and no half-finished round from last week to fall back into.
Changed While They Are Out
Stops can be added, dropped or reordered after the van has left. Anything already worked stays put, and the rest is re-planned from where the driver actually is.
The Company Words
A rubbish firm has service addresses and collections. A courier has addresses and jobs. Each company renames what it wants, and that is all their drivers and their customers ever see.
- A dispatch panel on the web for planning rounds, watching the vans and running the billing
- A native iPhone app for drivers, written in Swift and SwiftUI
- Rounds ordered by drive time, so nobody sits dragging rows up and down a list
- A live map of every driver, updated from the positions their handsets report
- Directions and spoken guidance inside the app, rather than a hand-off to another one
- Questions answered at the stop: counts, choices, signatures, photographs
- Charges raised as the work happens, drafted into invoices and exported for Xero and MYOB
- A customer portal where customers book visits and look up their own history
- A REST API, signed webhooks and a WordPress plugin for the shops that need one
- Multi-tenant from the ground up, with each company behind its own depot code
One system that plans the day in the office and holds up in a van, whatever it is the vans are carrying.
