Tracking tool for Axminster
September 1st 2009

Power tool and machinery specialist, Axminster Tool Centre has implemented Paragon's real-time Fleet Controller route planning and live vehicle tracking system for its home delivery operation. The solution enables Axminster to provide on-time deliveries for its own delivery service throughout the UK, from a box of wood screws through to power tools and a range of heavy duty machinery.

Routes and loads are planned automatically using Paragon's routing and scheduling optimisation software.

Once the fleet has set off, Fleet Controller feeds back vehicle tracking information so that the logistics team can compare real-time progress against the plan.

The Paragon system is reported to have revolutionised the home delivery operation, allowing accurate delivery windows to be allocated to each customer in line with the products they have bought.
