Representative logistics route loss scenario
Escenario representativo — exposición modelada, no un resultado verificado de cliente.
Problema
Dispatch prices planned miles and fuel but under-models deadhead return legs, stop-time burn, and route drift against the plan — lane margin erodes in aggregate.
Conjunto de entradas
- Planned distance 380 mi, actual 455 mi, fuel $3.95/gal
- 6 stops, 22% deadhead share, driver cost $32/h
Pérdida oculta
Extra miles and stop-time not in the customer rate card — modeled overrun ~$165–$210 per run in this illustrative set.
Route drift & deadhead exposure
Resultado del cálculo
Planned lane cost ~$620 vs modeled actual ~$790 per run; at 36 runs/month the illustrative exposure band is ~$6.1k–$6.8k (representative model only).
Fuel and time cost from planned vs actual distance, stop count, and deadhead share; loss exposure vs planned economics.
Acción sugerida
Review lane pricing or stop sequencing if modeled drift exceeds your tolerance band.
Impacto estimado: Indicative monthly route-loss exposure band — representative scenario only.
Nota metodológica
Logistics route-loss model with user-entered drift — surfaces drivers for repricing review, not GPS-verified audit.
- Fuel price and deadhead share as entered
- Stop time averaged per route
- Representative scenario — modeled exposure, not a verified customer outcome.
