ASDA is reducing the cost of transporting goods by using advanced map-based transport optimisation software. The routing and scheduling system from Paragon Software Systems allows ASDA’s logistics experts to model better routes and make more efficient use of its fleet and drivers. This is forecast to save ASDA between 5 and 10 per cent on the fleet costs of transporting goods to stores, which the company reinvests into the business to reduce costs to shoppers.
