Platform “Yandex. Routing” began work in the UAE

Logistics platform “Yandex. Routing” began work in the UAE. This was reported to TASS in the press service of Yandex.

“Yandex. Routing, a last-mile logistics management platform, has launched in the UAE. Retailers in the region will be able to automatically plan routes taking into account 200 operational parameters and restrictions, including the specifics of the local address system, when the exact addresses of recipients are unknown, ”the message says.

It is clarified that the technology of automatic route planning allows you to optimally distribute orders between couriers and find the best route for each. The platform makes it possible to build routes taking into account the dimensions of cargo, the capacity of transport, the allowable delivery time, and the throughput of warehouses.

The company added that an additional module of the planning service allows the seller company to request from the buyer the clarification of the place of delivery using a mark on the map. The received data is taken into account in the automatic construction of routes, which reduces the number of manual operations and errors.

“The main problem that local companies face when transporting goods is an inaccurate or incomplete destination address. If we add here a relatively large number of returns (and we see that about 40% of shipments are returned here), it becomes clear that optimizing delivery routes can significantly increase the efficiency of courier delivery in the UAE,” the words of the regional director of Yandex. Routing” MENA by Vladimir Nesterov.
