Later cutoffs
Orders can be accepted closer to delivery, because nothing is waiting on one moment in the day to be planned.
PlatformIntelligent
Scale same-day delivery
without the cutoff.
Instead of holding every order until a fixed cutoff and optimising the lot at once, Dynamic Release evaluates orders through the day and decides, each time, which to send and which to hold for a better round.
01/Why it matters
The cutoff is not a deadline.
It is a bottleneck.
A fixed cutoff does two things at once: it stops you accepting orders, and it drops the whole wave on the preparation team in one go. Both limits are self-imposed, and both cap how much same-day volume you can take.
Smoother preparation
Work is spread across the day instead of arriving in surges, which is what removes the peaks and bottlenecks after each cutoff.
Better vehicle utilisation
Holding an order for a better consolidation opportunity raises clustering, and clustering is what fills a van.
More volume, same fleet
Smoothing resource use lets volume grow without a proportional increase in vehicles and staff.
02/Features
How it works.
The system continuously evaluates tasks through the day and makes one of two decisions on each.
Release
Tasks that should go now — close to their time window, or already forming an efficient route.
Hold
Tasks that can wait, because nearby orders are expected and waiting will produce a denser round.
Continuous optimisation runs
Optimisation runs at configured intervals through the day rather than once after a cutoff.
Cross-wave grouping
Orders from different time slots can be grouped into one round when they sit on the same path.
Preparation time awareness
The decision accounts for when each task will actually be ready, not only where it is going.
Demand forecasting
Future order density by area feeds the hold-or-release decision, so a hold is a prediction rather than a guess.
