The Market Guide for Vehicle Routing & Scheduling includes detailed write-ups and figures for the 20 vendors surveyed that provides information on the VRS vendors that are perceived as relevant in the market based on revenue, number of clients, and end-user interest.

As the battle to win the last mile intensifies, there is an increasing demand for vehicle routing and scheduling technologies. Whether businesses manage an in-house fleet or rely upon a third party to manage their deliveries, these tools help them optimize operations throughout the supply chain.

There is an increased need for real-time dynamic technology to help tackle the current challenges of the transportation industry, such as reduced capacity, driver shortage, increased traffic congestion and a significant increase in last-mile deliveries. The VRS market remains fragmented as vendors focus on specific fleets, industries, and geographies. Only a few vendors, like FarEye, offer a global solution and support.
