Logistics management is inevitable without route optimization. The logistics business’s impact is based on its timely delivery that in turn results in good customer experience and satisfaction. Therefore, route optimization is an essential aspect of logistics delivery that requires a robust approval process. The route optimization plan approval is based on several factors such as the distance of delivery, other delivery schedules, fuel consumption rate, and traffic. 

Based on these parameters, managing every aspect of route optimization is tedious when performed manually. This results in delayed deliveries, suboptimal delivery routes, and additional operational costs. Hence, the logistics industry requires a better solution that will erase these limitations and approve the most optimal delivery routes. 

A workflow automation platform is an efficient medium to empower the route optimization plan approval process. Using automation, all the proposed delivery routes can be reviewed and evaluated for pitfalls and inefficiencies. The evaluation step can be automated based on certain conditions preset during workflow generation. This way only the proposals that meet the preset conditions go for approval, thus, reducing requests piling up. Automation helps in bulk approvals and only the most cost and time-efficient routes are encouraged based on multiple forecasts.
