Route optimization software that re-thinks the route mid-drive.

ZenDMS is a route planner program that sequences multi-stop, multi-vehicle routes in seconds, honouring time windows, vehicle capacity and driver skill. Then keeps route planning as traffic, weather and exceptions change the picture.

Why route optimisation

Three things that change with AI route planning.

Spreadsheets and static plans pretend the world stops moving the moment you hit dispatch. A modern route planner program keeps re-thinking the route until the last carton lands.

01 · CONSTRAINT-AWARE

Routes that respect the real world.

Time windows, vehicle capacity, driver skill, hazmat segregation, hours-of-service, honoured on every plan, not patched after.

02 · LIVE RE-ROUTING

The route keeps thinking, even mid-drive.

Traffic jams, weather, a long-stop, an unplanned pickup. ZenDMS re-sequences in under five seconds and pushes it to the driver app.

03 · LEARNING

Every trip teaches the next one.

Historical drive times, dwell at customer sites, fuel burn and driver skill all feed back, so tomorrow’s plan is sharper than today’s.

How a route gets optimised

From stop list to smarter sequence.

Five steps. Continuous learning. Every plan sharper than the last.

01

Ingest stops

Pull orders, vehicles and constraints from ERP/OMS, or paste a CSV.

02

Optimise

AI sequences multi-stop, multi-vehicle routes in seconds.

03

Dispatch

Push to the driver app with turn-by-turn nav, offline-friendly.

04

Re-optimise

Traffic, weather, exceptions, routes re-sequence mid-drive.

05

Learn

Trip data feeds back, tomorrow’s plan starts sharper than today’s.

Capabilities

Built for fleets that run on tight clocks.

Talk to us

Multi-stop, multi-vehicle

Plan hundreds of stops across dozens of vehicles in one pass, with depot returns, balanced workload and territory rules.

Time windows & SLAs

Respect every customer’s delivery slot. ZenDMS sequences stops so no promise is broken and no driver waits at a closed gate.

Capacity & skill match

Volume, weight, vehicle type and driver skill all factor in, reefers carry cold cargo, tankers carry tanker stops, full stop.

Live ETA & alerts

Learning ETAs from traffic, weather and historical dwell, with proactive alerts the moment a stop slips its window.

Mid-drive re-routing

Add a stop, drop a stop, divert around a jam, the route re-sequences in seconds and the driver app updates immediately.

Plan-vs-actual analytics

See where drivers beat or missed the plan, surface coaching moments, route gaps and chronic delay points.
