The aim of the project was to develop an AI-supported dispatcher system that makes route planning more efficient and offers precise and flexible planning solutions using artificial intelligence (AI). As part of this project, the potential of INTRANET's BubbleGPT platform was leveraged to transform and automate existing logistical processes.
Project Overview
The AI Dispatcher project takes a two-phase approach. In the first phase, the focus is on optimizing route and load planning through the use of AI. A second phase would integrate vehicle fleet management. The route planning, which results from loading planning and loading equipment, is outside the scope of the project, as route planning itself is already covered by good applications.
The core idea of this project is to relieve dispatchers through automated route and load planning based on AI. The system will analyze the delivery orders and suggest optimized routes based on the data from the logistics system. This will be done either through continuous background calculations or on-demand requests, depending on the specific needs and workflows of dispatchers.
Approach
The heart of the project is the integration of the BubbleGPT platform into the existing logistics applications. The platform's essential features include:
Tour or loading planning in real time: For each request, the logistics system sends the relevant delivery orders to BubbleGPT, which calculates the tours in real time on this basis.
Geographic clustering: AI analyzes the geographic data of delivery locations and creates tours based on the proximity of deliveries to each other.
Consideration of logistical parameters: In addition to geographical proximity, the AI also takes into account the weight of the orders, delivery dates and other essential parameters to ensure optimal route planning.
The BubbleGPT platform will serve as an AI backend and will be integrated into the existing systems via an API interface. This solution enables data to be transferred seamlessly to the AI and route suggestions to be quickly fed back to the dispatchers.
Benefits of this AI solution
Integrating AI into route planning brings numerous advantages:
Automated and optimized route planning: AI can quickly analyze huge amounts of data and create optimized route plans, significantly improving the efficiency and precision of route planning.
Flexibility and scalability: Because computation is done on demand, the system can respond flexibly to changing requirements without wasting unnecessary computing resources.
Relieving the load on dispatchers: By automating route planning, the load on dispatchers is relieved so that they can concentrate on other tasks.
Conclusion
The AI Dispatcher project impressively shows how artificial intelligence can be used to optimize complex logistical processes. Logisticians will be able to equip their dispatchers with a state-of-the-art, AI-powered tool that not only increases efficiency, but also makes planning processes more flexible and adaptable. With BubbleGPT as an integral component, every company will be able to successfully master its logistical challenges of the future.
