Abstract
Systems and methods for optimizing delivery vehicle resources (e.g. a plurality of vehicles) are described herein. Available time slots for the plurality of vehicles are determined and presented to a user. In response to receiving a delivery order indicating a selected time slot, the delivery order is assigned to a vehicle from the plurality of vehicles based on a time slot indicated in the delivery order and a set of delivery parameters. A delivery route is calculated for each vehicle having a delivery order based on the set of delivery parameters. An optimized delivery route is calculated for each vehicle having a delivery order based on the set of delivery parameters.
