Assisted Dispatch powered by Beans.ai is an advanced optimization feature available in CXT Software\u2019s comprehensive product suite. The feature utilizes intelligent algorithms to provide feedback and suggestions to make your shipment business more efficient. How so? Let\u2019s dive into the feature to learn more.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Whether you have a crew of 10 drivers or a fleet of 100s of drivers, it is a constant juggling act determining which driver to assign to which shipments. Countless factors play into dispatcher\u2019s decisions every day and it is not always an easy feat. Driver schedules, current locations versus the shipment\u2019s pickup and destination, remaining workload on the driver itinerary for the day\u2026so many things to consider!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Assisted dispatching does just that.<\/p>

Dispatcher assistance powered by CXT Software\u2019s integration with Beans Route takes the guesswork out of shipment assignment. It recommends the top 5 drivers to assign to individual on-demand orders or route stops.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Your Operations App connects to Beans.ai\u2019s advanced dispatching system for the data exchange of your fleet\u2019s real-time information that results in the driver recommendations. Beans.ai\u2019s powerful system can optimize over 10M+ permutations in minutes resulting in fast, up-to-the-minute results for your dispatcher to use.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Beans Route takes it from there. Based on this data as well as your dispatcher\u2019s settings for driver capabilities and delivery constraints, the assisted dispatching system starts to determine the five best drivers.\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

These considerations can include service and pickup\/delivery times and grace periods, estimated traffic speeds, predicted load\/unload times, ETA impact on the driver\u2019s existing shipments, and more.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Drivers and routes that don\u2019t fit the criteria are eliminated from consideration, and then the Assisted Dispatch tool prioritizes the remaining pool of drivers. Dispatchers are able to review the recommendations, see the recommended drivers\u2019 manifests, update ETAs, and more within the feature.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

The efficiency and effectiveness of your driver workforce is deeply intertwined with the successfulness of your business. Equally important is the effectiveness of your dispatchers. By equipping your dispatchers with advanced tools to tackle the difficult, high-level considerations to delegate well-planned shipment assignments, you are paving the way for simplified dispatching and improved operations.<\/p>

With the help of Assisted Dispatch, your dispatchers can choose from two key aspects when determining the optimal drivers:<\/p>
