Smart Planning 1.6

What is Infosoft Smart Planning? Smart Planning 1.6 enables the dispatch team to make machine-based, algorithmic planning suggestions that take into account legal (AZG) aspects and operational requirements. Smart Planning is an iterative support tool for time-saving service planning. With the additional option of preferred scheduling, the driving personnel can influence the results through the mobile app by providing work preferences and shift patterns along with weighting points. This modern form of flexibility and the inclusion of driving personnel will be a core pillar of employer attractiveness. The improved version 1.6 with compute nodes for fast planning suggestions (20-50 minutes) will be available to all customers from June 2025.
