How to Leverage Routing as a
Service

Be customer-centric. Ask when a delivery is necessary or provide flexibility to reschedule, change delivery address, or add-on items.

Make deliveries a value added service. If customers want more control, you can offer it for a premium. Milkman leverages Route Manager’s cost calculators to determine a fair delivery cost and confirm schedule availability via API.

Reduce chance of human error. Have more confidence and spend less time fixing problems.

Manage your day with agility. Adopting a mixed-demand approach allows you to meet delivery promises, while accommodating on-demand orders.

Live ETAs

Milkman leverages Route Manager’s Live ETAs feature to trigger real-time alerts on delivery time. It allows them to use real-time GPS tracking to increase transparency while giving customers the opportunity to reschedule delivery right up until the driver parks. This helps Milkman save time, save money, and maximize efficiency.
