announced the new version release of its bMobileRoute Manager™, route accounting
software, version 8.0. The route management software system is designed for
small and midsize wholesale distribution companies, with focus on the consumer
package goods industry (CPG).
bMobile also announced that its latest
release includes a new gas-saving feature, RouteMizer™ route optimization
package. The route optimization package, RouteMizer, utilizes sophisticated
route mapping technology as well as the capability to distribute workload
throughout the delivery fleet and labor force, using a variety of fleet, load
and personnel criteria. While fuel the savings is the obvious benefit to any
route delivery operation, vehicle and labor optimization functionality was also
developed to reduce operating costs for midsize companies.
bMobile President Chris Macaw stated, “RouteMizer is by
far the most requested of all the new features, and has the greatest potential
of immediate payback for the wholesaler.” The RouteMizer addition has drawn increased interest due to the
recent fuel cost surge.
In addition to route optimization, the route
management package 8.0 added advanced asset tracking features and additional
in-depth sales reports. The PC portion of the package is Windows® compatible
and the real-time mobile application utilizes the industry leading Windows
Mobile® platform, allowing installation on most handheld computing devices. The
two systems communicate via WiFi, wireless broadband, or the ubiquitous digital
cellular.
