Optimizing the Last Mile with Optimus at Dynakode
Last Mile Delivery
The final leg between a retailer’s distribution center and the consumer’s doorstep is known as the “last mile,” and it is generally the most expensive part of the whole product journey. This is the step that requires utmost attention, being the final and the most crucial leg – as this is the only touchpoint with the customer who is waiting for the goods ordered.
COST, EXPERIENCE, EFFICIENCY, And FRICTION are the important driving factor in last mile delivery being the only point where customer interaction is required.
COST: As has been researched, 28% of the total delivery cost to a business comes from the last-mile. This goes up, if SOP are not followed.
EXPERIENCE: Customers today want the full, real time visibility over their deliveries that is, they want to be able to see where the driver is and exactly when they will arrive.
EFFICEINCY: Among other reasons, the requirement for increased efficiency is predicated on the desire for faster deliveries. On-demand has penetrated every industry and business, and online retail is no exception.
FRICTION: The flow of information has to be real time, relevant and without any friction. This helps the driving team to take decisions quickly, and are valuable inputs to strategic expansions.
