Citodi

Citodi is an artificial intelligence solution for routing optimization that takes into consideration all variables of a delivery.

Citodi is a real time routing and automatic dispatch system. Our algorithms optimize the efficiency of a fleet between 15 to 40% depending of the size of the fleet and number of interventions. The solution considers all the variables of a delivery (size and weight of packages, eligibility of delivery men, routes, CO2 emission, traffic and dozen of other data, which enables the delivery company to reduce time delivery and increase the profitability of each delivery. Scientifically, the R&D project consisted in building an artificial intelligence capable of deciding in real time the best assignment of deliveries to be made (and which arrive continuously) to couriers (located in real time). The underlying mathematical problem is one of the most difficult of combinatorial optimization and is found in the literature as Dial-a-Ride Pickup and Delivery Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem (DaRPDCVRP). Economically, the project is to provide an accessible SaaS solution easy to use for complex transportation tasks express mail. By relying on technological supports (smartphones, cloud services, etc.), the intelligence system artificial integrates completely with the logistics processes put in place in freight transport companies and allows them to respond more quickly and effectively to all problems encountered (for example, a courier is late or falls out of order, a customer is absent, etc.). The impact for these companies is major because the scalability of the system allows it to manage fleets of couriers of several hundred individuals without any problem, which today requires a lot of human time where these operations are made by hand.
