Participant Business Summary and Export – Optimization4Me
An Affiliate is a Route4Me partner who has the Route4Me Operational Assessment (OA) system integrated into their business or organization for analyzing their customers or a reseller who rebrands Route4Me’s services and offers them to end-users, as well as uses the Route4Me OA system for attracting new customers by showing them the value of optimization. Participants are the customers (companies/businesses) or end-users associated with the given Route4Me Affiliate. As an Affiliate, you can view the Report (Estimated Savings With Route4Me) of each Participant associated with your Route4Me OA Affiliate account. In the Business Summary section of the Participant’s Report, you can view how the Participant’s Actual (Baseline) tracking data was processed by the Route4Me OA to produce the As-Is and Optimized figures. The Participant’s Actual (Baseline) data is the raw tracking data imported from the Participant’s Telematics Connection established between the given Participant and this Participant’s Telematics Vendor through the Route4Me Telematics Gateway. The As-Is and Optimized data is the Participant’s telematics tracking data that is partially or fully optimized by the Route4Me OA to show the potential Savings this Participant can get by optimizing their routes.
To view the Business Summary of the Operation Analysis Report of a particular Participant, as an Affiliate, first, open your Affiliate Dashboard with all Participants in your organization. To do so, go to “Dashboard” from the navigation menu at the top. To learn more about using the Affiliate Dashboard, visit this page.
NOTE: Next, use the calendar to filter the data of all Participants displayed on your Affiliate Dashboard by date.
You can use the search in the top right corner of the screen to find Participants by their attributes (i.e., associated email address, internal User ID, company name, etc.).
To open the OA Report of a particular Participant from your Affiliate Dashboard, click on the folder/report icon in the “Report” column next to the corresponding Participant.
To adjust the Report Settings (Business and Route Summary parameters), first, click on the “Settings” button in the top left corner of the opened Participant Report. In the Report Settings, you can define values for the following Report parameters:
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| Cost per Driver per Hour (USD) | The average amount of money paid to a driver per one hour (in USD). |
| Stop Cost | The average cost of making one route stop. |
| Operating Cost per Mile | The average operating cost per one on-road mile/one mile of driving. |
| Emissions (K Ton CO2 per Mile) | The average amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions produced per one mile (K Ton CO2 per Mile). |
| Accidents per Million Miles | The average number of accidents per one million of on-road miles. |
| Cost per Accident | The average cost per one accident (in USD). |
| Gallon Fuel Cost | The average cost per one gallon of fuel (in USD). |
| Miles per Gallon | The average amount of miles driven per one gallon of fuel. |
| Cost per Hour for Drive Time | The average cost of one hour of driving (travel cost). |
| Cost per Hour for Service Time | The average cost per one hour of service time (onsite service time). |
The Participant’s imported tracking data is sorted into the following columns (Levers) in the Business Summary of the Participant’s Report:
| Term | Description |
|---|---|
| Actual (Baseline) Routing Data | The routing data that was captured by the Participant’s telematics device(s) and imported into the Participant’s Operational Assessment account through the Route4Me Telematics Gateway without any changes or modifications (no optimization). The Actual (Baseline) routing data shows how the detected route(s) were actually driven in real life by the associated vehicle(s). |
| As-Is Routing Data | The routing data that was captured by the Participant’s telematics device(s), imported into the Participant’s OA account through the Route4Me Telematics Gateway and then optimized for the shortest directions only. The As-Is routing data shows the same sequence of stops that was actually driven on each detected route in real life but with optimized driving directions (the shortest driving route path). |
| Optimized Routing Data | The routing data that was captured by the Participant’s telematics device(s), imported into the Participant’s OA account through the Route4Me Telematics Gateway and then fully optimized. The Optimized routing data shows the most efficient and optimal results that can be achieved by optimizing the Participant’s routing data for the shortest driving directions/shortest driving route path, and the most efficient sequence of detected route stops. |
In the Participant’s Business Summary, you can see the following Operational Assessment Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized Routing Data Comparison and Business Savings Figures:
| Term | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Metrics | ||
| Distance | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized distance on all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| Time (Man Hours of Labor) | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized man-hours of labor on all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| Time (Man Hours Driving) | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized driving man-hours on all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| At-Fault Accidents Count | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized number of detected accidents on all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| Emissions (K Ton CO2) | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized amount of CO2 emissions produced on all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| Analysis Confidence | The confidence/precision percentage of the detected and computed routing data within the preselected time period. | |
| Vehicles Count | The total number of vehicles tracking data from which was imported into the Participant’s OA account through the Route4Me Telematics Gateway within the preselected time period. | |
| Financial | ||
| Vehicle | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized costs of operating the Participant’s vehicles for completing all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| Labor | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized labor costs required for completing all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| At-Fault Accidents Cost | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized costs of the accidents that happened on all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| Stops Costs | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized costs of all stops on all routes detected within the preselected time period. | |
| Summary | ||
| Summary | Actual (Baseline), As-Is, and Optimized total costs (including fuel, labor, and all other costs) for the preselected time period. | |
