Planning & Scheduling
eLogii's planning and scheduling builds optimized daily and multi-day schedules for field engineers and delivery drivers. It matches jobs to people by skills, vehicles, territory and time windows, then uses dynamic scheduling to re-plan automatically when the day changes. The same engine runs field service operations and distribution operations with 50 or more people on the road.
“Really difficult to say, as making the switch from RouteXL to eLogii felt like leaving behind a Renault Twingo and jumping to a Ferrari. There are many features that have made planning much simpler and more scalable”
Your operation has dozens of rules. Who can do what, which vehicle fits, when customers are available, how long each job takes. Most routing tools ignore half of them. eLogii's route optimization software factors in every constraint simultaneously and builds the best plan in seconds.
Add depots, territories, engineers and vehicles with their skills, shifts and start and end locations.
Set the rules: skills and capability matching, vehicle-specific routing, time windows, breaks and working-time limits.
Create tasks in the dashboard, import a CSV or send them through the API.
The engine builds optimized routes across engineers, depots and days, and shows anything it could not schedule so planners can decide.
Routes go to the engineers' app. Real-time replanning through dynamic scheduling handles cancellations, new jobs and delays.

New jobs, cancellations, traffic shifts. Your schedule re-optimizes automatically without blowing up the rest of the day. No manual reshuffling, no second tool.
Most tools force you to plan each location separately. eLogii routes across all of them at once, respecting which teams work where, which depot serves what, and who has the right skills for each of your service zones.
Every operation has rules that live in people's heads. Which team handles what, when to escalate, how to prioritize. The rules engine turns that tribal knowledge into automated logic. No code required.
Scheduling decides who does which job and when. Routing decides the order and path between jobs. Dispatching sends the plan to the field and manages changes through the day. eLogii handles all three in one platform, so a change in one is reflected in the others.

“We needed a solution that could handle our scale, the multitude of variables, and integration with our platform. Our planning team needed faster, more scalable operations.”
Set ranked optimization objectives. Prioritize cost, time, distance, or workload balance in the order that matters most to your business.
Re-optimize live routes in seconds when new jobs arrive, plans change, or cancellations hit throughout the day.
Factor in driver and vehicle costs so the engine picks the cheapest resource combination, not just the shortest route.
Group nearby stops geographically before routing. More time on-site, less time driving between jobs.
Route across multiple depots, branches, or starting locations in one optimization run.
Define service zones on the map. Auto-assign tasks to the right team based on geographic boundaries.
Match jobs to qualified people and vehicles. Certifications and equipment are matched independently so the right combination is always assigned.
Real-time traffic data and vehicle-specific road selection built into every route. ETAs that hold up in the real world.
Distribute jobs evenly across your team by time, distance, load, or stop count. Reduces overtime and keeps everyone productive.
Automate task assignment with if-then rules. Set teams, priorities, skills, and tags when conditions match. No code required.
Optimize tasks across a date range of 30 days or longer. The engine assigns each task to the best day and person based on location and capacity.
Plan routes spanning multiple days. Assign multiday schedules, override start locations for overnight stops, and mix with single-day drivers.
Sequence multi-step jobs across multiple days with driver continuity. Plan phased installations, staged deliveries, and return visits.
Set per-customer and per-job service durations for accurate planning. Tiered durations, setup times, and rule-based time estimates.
Set earliness, lateness, and overtime tolerances. Balance customer time windows with operational efficiency.
Set maximum route duration, distance, and stop limits per person or across the whole operation.
Set utilization caps for vehicles and people. Build in safety margins for loading time, emergencies, and realistic planning.
Automatically factor return-to-depot trips into route planning for accurate total route costs and working day calculations.
Offer customers time slots pre-optimized into existing routes. Every booking improves overall efficiency.
Assign priority scores so VIP customers and urgent jobs are always scheduled first by the optimizer.
Group people, users, and customers into teams for structured dispatch. Each team gets its own task pool, roster, and visibility.
Schedule two-person or multi-crew jobs with synchronized arrival times. Plan heavy installations and safety-required team operations.
Create recurring templates with weekly or monthly schedules. Auto-generate planned routes without rebuilding from scratch.
Auto-generate recurring tasks at set intervals. Schedule subscription services, contract visits, and replenishment runs automatically.
Split optimization by depot, team, or day for large task volumes. Segment processing handles scale where global optimization is impractical.
Quick route optimization for simple operations. Generate daily route plans in seconds without complex configuration.
Fine-tune ETA accuracy with scaling factors for local conditions. Account for rural roads, campus navigation, and seasonal traffic patterns.
Route hazardous materials safely with road-type and tunnel restrictions. Ensure compliance for HAZMAT and regulated cargo.
Run a single operation across multiple timezones. All scheduling, ETAs, and shift hours display in local time automatically.
It assigns jobs to engineers and sequences their day based on skills, location, availability and customer time windows. eLogii adds route optimization and live re-planning so the schedule stays efficient when the day changes.
Scheduling plans who does which job and when. Dispatching sends the plan to the field and manages changes through the day.
It runs route optimization against your objectives and constraints, including cost-based routing, skills and vehicle matching, shifts and multi-day horizons.
Yes. Polygon zones, cross-zone jobs, depot reloads, automatic depot selection and team isolation are supported.
Yes. The no-code rules engine uses if-then logic for assignment, priority, skills and notifications, and rules can be tested before going live.
New jobs and cancellations trigger automatic re-optimization, with utilization caps that reserve capacity for reactive work.
Yes. The same planning engine runs field service and distribution operations.
