Single Depot, Single Driver Route Optimization (No Constraints)

This route optimization mode is ideal for simple delivery operations that start and end at a single depot using one driver and vehicle. It assumes no time windows, vehicle capacities, or other constraints, making it the most streamlined version of route planning. The system’s goal is to generate the most efficient travel path, either by time or distance.

Route Optimization Simulation – Single Driver, No Constraints

This simulation demonstrates how Route4Me automatically sequences stops to minimize travel time or mileage.

It solves a basic version of the Vehicle Route Problem (VRP), closely related to the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), by calculating the most efficient stop order for a single vehicle without any external limitations.

All addresses are considered equally available, and the route begins and ends at the depot. With no time windows, capacity restrictions, or scheduling rules, the algorithm focuses purely on routing efficiency.

As a result, even routes with dozens of stops can be optimized in just a few seconds.

Benefits Of Constraint-Free Route Optimization

This type of optimization is especially useful when speed and simplicity are top priorities.

Since the algorithm doesn’t need to account for delivery windows or vehicle limitations, it can return optimized routes in seconds, even for schedules with 50 or more addresses.

This enables dispatchers and planners to make fast, informed decisions without manual adjustments or delays, saving time during high-volume delivery days.

Use Cases – Single Driver, Single Depot Delivery Routes

This mode is ideal for:

• Local businesses with simple delivery runs
• Field technicians whose visits can occur in any order
• Couriers completing flexible pickups or drop-offs

This mode simplifies route planning for straightforward deliveries, enabling fast decision-making and efficient route deployment.
