Case Study: Blackheath Products achieves 20% mileage savings with Aptean Routing & Scheduling

Aptean Helps Blackheath Products With 20% Mileage Cut

Blackheath Products, a UK distributor serving the construction and furniture industries, was preparing for a major expansion that would double the size of its operation. Disparate systems and separate storage and routing processes were creating disconnected workflows, inefficient routes, and underused fleet and resources, so Blackheath turned to Aptean Routing & Scheduling to support its growth.

Aptean implemented Routing & Scheduling to create efficient fleet plans, avoid duplicate vehicle visits, and improve coordination across warehouse operations. The result was a smoother scaling of the business, with Blackheath Products doubling its operation without adding pressure to route planning, cutting mileage and fuel use by up to 20%, and reducing planning time by 75%.
