Territory Optimization and Planning

Strategically defined territories are key to running an efficient and productive transportation enterprise. Whether your territories relate to customer deliveries, services or emergency management such as fire station planning, GIS gives you the tools to optimize your business.

Additionally, you can use demographic map data to quickly update territories due to fluctuations in population or customer demographics.

ESRI’s Territory Optimization Tools are used in various industries such as elevator maintenance, beverage delivery, or pest control services.

The Territory Optimization Tools (TO) provide functions to schedule periodic work (e.g., monthly visits) and to optimize territories while balancing the workload for up to 12 months in advance.

The automated results can be manipulated through a powerful desktop application including maps, charts, and tabular views. The TO also automates the daunting task of setting up dependent services or sales routes (e.g., for re-inspections or pre-sales activities.)

The TO can be implemented as a Client/server or Web services solution. The TO integrates with your Work-order Management System, Customer Management System, Customer Information System, or other enterprise system modules.
