The Problem
Our client needs 2,384 Parcels to be delivered/collected in one day within the Sydney metro region with 60 internal drivers on hand. Also relying on 3rd party operators to provide support.
The Challenge
Deliver all parcels for the minimum cost.
Setting the scene
From the data provided by our client we understand the clients business as usual scenario:
Handled by Our Clients’ Fleet |
1,669 parcels$25,200 |
Daily Total$38,070 |
Outsourced to 3rd Party Couriers |
715 parcels$12,870 |
Average cost per parcel$15.96 |
Applying GoLoop
We analysed the problem and arrived at a range of outcomes…

Total:$25,200 | |
Conservative Results | |
Handled by Our Client2,287 parcels | Outsourced to 3rd Party Couriers97 parcels |
Total:$26,946 | |
Average cost/parcel |
$10.57 – $11.30 |
The Outcome
GoLoop produces a much more efficient set of driver manifests that results in significant savings to our client.
A saving of $4.66 per parcel => |
$11,110 per day |
The Reason
Our clients’ drivers are each allocated an average of 34.4 parcels and deliver 3 parcels per hour. GoLoop allocated an average of 42 parcels per driver and ensures drivers deliver an average of 3.6 parcels per hour.
These efficiencies are created by 2 aspects of the model:
- More efficient delivery manifests
- Better allocation of consignments to drivers
GoLoop can consistently produce results of between 50% and 100% of the results above on a daily basis.
