Case Study: United States Postal Service achieves 30% more efficient Sunday deliveries with RouteSmart Engine

United States Postal Service boosts Sunday delivery efficiency by 30% with RouteSmart Technologies

The United States Postal Service faced the challenge of efficiently launching a new Sunday delivery service for Amazon packages. With contracted drivers unfamiliar with the delivery areas, they needed a solution to create balanced routes and provide turn-by-turn directions. They partnered with RouteSmart Technologies and implemented the RouteSmart Engine to address this.

RouteSmart Technologies provided the core optimization engine for the Postal Service's Dynamic Routing Tool. The results were significant, with an audit finding routes were at least 30% more efficient, reducing the number of routes and miles driven. This efficiency allowed the Postal Service to double its Sunday delivery volume within a year, with the RouteSmart Engine successfully scaling to optimize millions of delivery addresses.
