3 mins Read

August 5, 2024

Attention fleet managers, drivers, and fleet admins! You can now plan optimized routes for your fleet through Motive Route Optimization with NextBillion.ai, which is now available on the Motive marketplace. This integration will allow you to plan complex multi-vehicle routes directly within the Motive dashboard. Route dispatchers and planners can easily manage these plans, while drivers can engage with and view their routes through the Driver App. Thanks to this integration, route management efficiency and driver coordination will get a significant boost.

What the NextBillion.ai Integration Does for You

Advanced Route Optimization Engine

NextBillion.ai allows you to enhance Motive’s routing capabilities for better fleet utilization. With our Fleet Hub, you can generate routes that satisfy all your routing constraints (choose from over 50 options with NextBillion.ai) with no manual intervention. The time and effort you were spending manually altering routes to achieve desired results can now be directed somewhere more productive.

NextBillion.ai Motive integration also ensures maximum efficiency with zone-based allocation and support for multiple vehicles.

Regulation-Compliant Truck Routes

NextBillion.ai allows you to get truck-optimized routes that consider factors like truck weight, dimensions, type, weight, and cargo to ensure compliance with transporting various types of cargo from origin to destination.

NextBillion.ai strictly adheres to all compliance regulations and safety protocols for managing fleets across locations. It supports regulatory compliance by collecting electronic signatures and photographic evidence for delivery confirmation. This approach makes it easy to maintain records, solve disputes, etc.

Incorporate Delivery Windows and Appointment Times

Providing multiple delivery windows to customers is a pivotal way to offer convenience.

With this integration, you can now account for factors like service windows to avoid surprises and eliminate the need for on-road improvisations.

The ‘time window’ constraint helps you establish a designated period when a vehicle is ready for tasks for vehicle route optimization.

Dispatch Routes to Your Choice of Driver App

You can now dispatch optimized routes to the Motive Driver app, or NextBillion.ai’s driver app can come in handy for turn-by-turn navigation and proof of delivery. You can also formulate routes that are suited to your specific use case:

  • Last-mile delivery: Streamlined last-mile delivery operations ensure that you have accurate routes to deliver orders from your warehouses and stores to your customers’ doorsteps.
  • Middle-mile deliveries: You can ensure efficient and timely deliveries to sorting hubs, warehouses, and distribution centers.

The API will send precise driving and delivery instructions to ensure alignment across the team. This improves responsiveness to changing conditions and enhances operational efficiency in dynamic logistics environments.

No-Code Integration

Motive tracks field assets ensures driver safety, and analyzes driver behavior, while NextBillion.ai optimizes schedules and routes for efficiency. The NextBillion Motive integration takes place in 3 simple steps without requiring any code:

  • Connect and import data from Motive: Data from Motive, including the driver and vehicle details, is sent to NextBillion.ai for route optimization.
  • Run route optimization on NextBillion.ai: To effectively optimize the routes, NextBillion.ai considers factors like maximum tasks, vehicle costs, and service time. The optimized routes are displayed on NextBillion.ai’s Route Planner, providing the user with a detailed route manifesto and timing information.
  • Push optimized routes to the Motive Driver app: The optimized routes are then sent back to Motive, where you can view and manage them through the Motive Driver app, showing real-time locations and task status.
