Study Notes

  • There are three types of fleet management: planned routes, aleatory demand, and assigned to a driver/user.
  • Planned routes are typically created based on the expected demand for the vehicles, as well as other factors such as the capacity of the vehicles, the distance and duration of the routes, and the availability of drivers. These routes are designed to optimize the use of the fleet and ensure that the vehicles are able to meet the expected demand efficiently and cost-effectively.
  • The aleatory demand of vehicles refers to the unpredictable or variable demand for the vehicles, which may vary based on a number of factors such as changes in customer demand, unexpected events, or seasonality. In these cases, the fleet may need to adapt and adjust its routes in order to meet the changing demand, which can be more challenging and may require more flexibility.
  • A fleet that is assigned to a driver/user is typically used by that specific driver on a regular basis, while a vehicle that is assigned to an activity type is typically used for a specific type of task or activity, regardless of which driver is operating it. The decision of which type of assignment to use may depend on the specific needs and goals of the fleet.

Explore the different types of fleet management including planned routes, aleatory demand, and vehicle assignment to drivers/users. Learn about optimizing fleet usage, adapting to variable demand, and making decisions based on specific fleet needs and goals.
