Discover our latest features: Fair Cost Allocation and Smart Sectorization
Greenplan offers a top-notch route optimization solution that reduces your transport costs while improving on-time delivery. Greenplan fully adapts to the individual requirements of your logistics processes. With our solution, you benefit from significant cost savings through fewer but fully utilised vehicles and fewer kilometres driven. Additionally, your customers benefit from punctual deliveries as predicted travel and congestion times are included in the route planning – an industry-leading approach proven superior by scientific studies.
Greenplan sets new standards in the route planning market, which pays off for our customers: Our clients report 10 to 30% more efficiency compared to their previous solution.
Greenplan's Fair Cost Allocation feature ensures that logistics costs are distributed equitably among stakeholders by leveraging data-driven insights from routing and delivery metrics. By analyzing factors such as route efficiency and parcel volumes, it provides transparency and fairness in cost distribution, leading to improved operational efficiency and better-informed decision-making.

Greenplan offers a variety of products for optimal, data-driven route planning. In an ever-changing logistics landscape, a one-size-fits-all model is no longer effective. Therefore, Greenplan's various solutions are individually tailored to each company and can be seamlessly integrated into existing operations. This way, dispatchers receive customised flexibility for optimal performance.
The powerful algorithm of Greenplan, the heart of our route optimization, is offered as a standalone module for integration into your existing TMS system. This allows you to enjoy all the benefits of cost reduction and increased punctuality without your dispatchers needing to adapt to a new environment or system interface. Greenplan collaborates with leading TMS providers to optimize your operations and perform complex calculations at the touch of a button. By utilising existing data, hidden efficiencies are revealed, enabling informed business decisions. Manage your operations with mathematical precision to reduce transport costs and greenhouse gas emissions while increasing punctuality. Enhance your existing TMS with Greenplan:
For customers with largely fixed delivery addresses and consistent volumes, Greenplan offers the creation of optimized framework route plans without the need for IT connectivity. Taking into account your requirements, constraints, order volumes, and desired optimization goals, Greenplan creates a fixed route plan that your vehicles can follow week after week, which will be reviewed and updated at intervals agreed upon with you. Ensure long-term and noticeable optimization of your network with Greenplan Planning:
Greenplan Execution complements our products Engine or Planning and provides users with a system interface for visualising, monitoring, and adjusting route plans. It enables comprehensive management of your daily routing operations with a user-friendly interface. New orders can be easily added to existing routes throughout the day via drag-and-drop. The dispatcher always retains control over route planning and can decide whether to manually or automatically make new orders or changes to already planned routes through the system. On the active map, vehicles in delivery are displayed in near real-time. The ETA of each vehicle is updated every 30 seconds. In case of delays and potential time window violations, the dispatcher receives automatic alerts and recommendations from the system. Route changes are automatically communicated to drivers via the Driver App. The new estimated arrival time (ETA) can also be automatically communicated to customers via email or SMS.
For strategic questions beyond day-to-day operations, we are always at your service. Our consultancy services include, for example:

Greenplan routes achieve industry-leading punctuality due to their unique approach of incorporating predicted travel and congestion times into the calculation of routes and stop sequences. This means that forecasted congestion times directly influence our routes and stop sequences. This surpasses all market solutions, which only add actual stop times at the end of the route calculation, after determining the roads and stop sequences. By consciously integrating predicted delays due to congestion into the planning, it results in fewer stops per route and reduced workload during working hours.
Companies that rely on fixed districts for their route planning benefit from optimal handling times by dividing their routes into fixed districts. The advantage: your drivers know all the addresses, saving significant time. The disadvantage: travel times can increase significantly due to longer routes, and more vehicles are on the road.
For companies that cannot do without dividing into fixed districts, we offer a solution that combines the best of fixed and dynamic districts: overlapping districts. Our expert team calculates the optimal overlap of adjacent districts together with your dispatchers. This balances volume fluctuations between districts, leading to higher vehicle utilisation and fewer vehicles on the road. At the same time, it ensures that drivers know the majority of their addresses, resulting in lower handling times. By overlapping with adjacent districts, you achieve the optimal compromise between customer- and load-dependent handling times and ideal travel time.
With the fully dynamic planning approach, which does not rely on geographical boundaries, you efficiently utilise the loading capacities of your fleet. This allows the delivery areas to be optimized as a whole. Your benefits include: punctual deliveries, the shortest possible routes, and the fully automatic assignment of orders to tours.
