Dynamic Directed Fueling Route Optimization

This routing mode helps fleets refill essential resources like fuel, heating oil, or compressed gas at the best nearby facilities as routes progress. It routes vehicles to close, pre-approved fueling stations, maximizing how much fuel is carried per delivery and reducing unnecessary trips back to the depot.

Route4Me optimizes multi-stop fuel delivery routes, ensuring timely refueling for efficient fleet operations.

 

Route Optimization Simulation – Dynamic Directed Fueling

 

This simulation demonstrates how Route4Me reroutes vehicles en route to the most advantageous station for refueling or replenishment.

The system calculates optimal fueling stops closest to the next service location, reducing travel distance and keeping the vehicle operating efficiently.

 

Benefits Of Dynamic Directed Fueling

This feature delivers distinct operational advantages:

  • Extends route range by refueling close to the next stop, avoiding backtracking
  • Improves fuel economy and route efficiency by minimizing detours
  • Supports continuous, flexible route execution without unnecessary depot returns

 

Use Case – Dynamic Directed Fueling

This is especially useful for:

  • Reducing unnecessary stops by dynamically rerouting vehicles based on real-time fuel levels, location, and priority
  • Helping to maintain consistent fuel supply in vehicles, preventing delays and service interruptions
  • Improving fleet efficiency by optimizing fueling routes while minimizing total travel time

It’s especially effective for fleets that require flexible, real-time routing adjustments to optimize fueling operations and reduce downtime.
