But in recent years, more and more logistics companies are benefiting from <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ptvgroup.com\/en\/transport-logistics\/logistics-route-planning-automatic-or-manual\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">last-mile delivery software<\/a> &#8211; digital tools for routing and scheduling &#8211; that help them overcome these challenges.<\/p>\n<p>At PTV Group, we work with hundreds of logistics and delivery companies. Many of them shared with us their experiences using a route planning software to improve last mile deliveries. Below is a short review of their feedback \u2013 but first the basics:<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What is last mile delivery?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The term\u00a0<em>last mile delivery<\/em>\u00a0refers to the last kilometers that a product travels before it arrives at the end customer.\u00a0This can be a consumer, but also a company or an institution.<\/p>\n<p>Small and medium size vehicles are responsible for much of that last mile when it comes to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ptvgroup.com\/en\/urban-logistics\/dpd-fresh-deliveries-of-food-products\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">private deliveries<\/a>.\u00a0Larger means of transport, especially trucks, are also part of city distribution.\u00a0They often transport larger products \u2013 such as building materials, furniture, food, appliances, machines, etc. \u2013 for both the private and business consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Online retailers and businesses, on their side, invest more resources into <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ptvgroup.com\/en\/city-and-mobility\/black-friday-delivery-how-the-holiday-boom-challenges-the-last-mile\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">optimizing their last mile services<\/a>. By optimizing their logistics networks, they improve customer retention, reduce transportation costs, and strongly position themselves in a rapidly changing market.<\/p>\n<p>Lat mile delivery often begins in a <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ptvgroup.com\/nl\/transport-en-logistiek\/logistieke-hubs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">logistics hub<\/a> &#8211; a shipment center, usually in the outskirts of or near major cities.\u00a0In the hubs, the shipments are distributed among the vehicles that take care of the last mile to the recipients.<\/p>\n<p>Here are the benefits of using a route optimization software during last mile deliveries, as mentioned by some of our users (read some of their stories <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ptvgroup.com\/en\/solutions\/products\/ptv-route-optimiser\/customer-references\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>):[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>1.

Shorten time windows<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Customers expect accurate time windows to receive their deliveries. Research shows that when companies are unable to meet the promised time windows, customer retention rates decrease. Many companies deal with this concern by overestimating delivery times and offering larger delivery time windows. This is not a long-term solution and can negatively impact customer satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>Shorter time windows allow customers to better prepare for the delivery, improving their satisfaction and retention levels.

Give customers real-time ETA<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Delays during last mile deliveries can of course also affect the reliability of ETAs. This, in turn, affects both customers\u2019 plans and the operations of the delivery company.\u00a0Retailers and carriers who want to prevent their deliverers from standing in front of a closed door will have to inform consumers better.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For companies using a trip\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ptvgroup.com\/nl\/oplossingen\/producten\/ptv-route-optimiser\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">planning<\/a>\u00a0software, it is possible to <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ptvgroup.com\/nl\/transport-en-logistiek\/last-mile-delivery-met-real-time-etas\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">accurately plan<\/a> each journey and calculate the expected arrival times to the delivery locations.\u00a0When the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ptvgroup.com\/nl\/oplossingen\/producten\/ptv-route-optimiser\/optimaal-plannen\/transportplanning\/\">transport<\/a>\u00a0planning is final, the software can communicate to the customers the expected arrival times, including a buffer time.

Trip planning software calculates in a few seconds which distribution of orders among trucks is the most efficient and therefore more environmentally friendly.

Trip planning software automatically takes these laws and regulations into account, so that only vehicles that comply with all regulations are routed into city centers.<\/p>\n<p>By intelligently combining orders into compact routes, driving distances can be saved and thus reduce emissions considerably.
