Everything you need to run a leading delivery operation

Dynamic Route Optimisation

No more planning around paper, spreadsheets, and postcodes. Access MaxOptra's algorithm dynamically plans the most efficient and cost-effective delivery routes in seconds, considering all key variables from live traffic and roadworks to driver breaks and delivery windows. 

The result: fewer miles, lower fuel costs, and routes your drivers can actually trust, cutting operational costs by up to 20%.

Dynamic Scheduling & Real-Time Re-Routing

Orders change. Drivers get delayed. Customers add last-minute requests. Access MaxOptra lets you adapt on the fly, adding stops, re-sequencing routes, and pushing updates straight to its Driver App without starting from scratch. 

Routes can be amended right up until vehicles leave the depot, and adjusted in real time once they're on the road.

Real-Time Operational Visibility

See exactly what's happening on the road, in real time, not just at the end of the day. Access MaxOptra’s range of telematics integrations alongside its Driver App gives you a live view of every vehicle, every stop, and every deviation from plan. 

Spot delays before they become problems, then compare planned vs actual performance at the end of the day.

Automated Customer Communications

Customers want to know where their delivery is, without having to call and ask. Access MaxOptra sends accurate ETA notifications automatically, by SMS, email, and your website tracking widget, so they're kept informed at every stage. 

The result: fewer support calls, a smoother delivery experience, and reviews that reflect it. 

Driver App & Delivery Execution

Everything on the road runs through the Access MaxOptra Driver App: ePOD signatures and photos, barcode scan on and off for item-level detail, and built-in vehicle checks before drivers leave the depot. 

It's also what powers the updates customers see, tracking driver progress in real time so every notification is accurate and the tracking widget shows exactly where the driver is on the map. 

ERP & System Integrations

Access MaxOptra connects to the key systems you already use. With an open API and established integrations across CRM, ERP, WMS, SOP and telematics platforms, order data flows in and delivery data flows straight back out, so you can automate the whole exchange without manual re-keying. 

The result: no double entry, no juggling spreadsheets between systems, and a single source of truth your whole team can plan against. 

Built to transform the way you deliver

Fewer miles. Happier customers. Less time spent planning and more time spent running your business. That's what route optimisation should do for you, and it's what Access MaxOptra is built to deliver. Behind the scenes, it's constantly balancing your vehicles, your drivers, and your customers' experience, no matter what’s changed since this morning. So, the routes your team runs are the ones that actually work. 

The outcome: more deliveries per vehicle, fewer failed first attempts, lower operational costs, and customers who trust you to show up when you say you will.

FAQs

What is route optimisation software and how does it work?

Route optimisation software plans the most efficient and cost-effective sequence of stops for your entire fleet, taking into account vehicle capacities, delivery time windows, driver shift patterns, road restrictions and live traffic conditions. Access MaxOptra generates these routes automatically, cutting planning time by up to 80% compared with manual methods.

What's the difference between route planning and route optimisation?

Route planning maps out a sensible order for a list of stops. Route optimisation goes further, calculating the most efficient and cost-effective combination of routes across your whole fleet at once, factoring in constraints like vehicle capacity, time windows and driver availability. So, you get routes that are both efficient and achievable, not just logically ordered.

Will route optimisation replace my transport planner?

No. Access MaxOptra takes on the heavy calculation, working out thousands of route combinations in seconds, but your planner still makes the judgement calls that keep customers and drivers happy. Think of it as giving your planner a much faster starting point, not a replacement.

Does Access MaxOptra handle different vehicle types and restricted routes like ULEZ or low bridges?

Yes. Access MaxOptra places no limit on the number of vehicle types you can plan for, including HGV truck routing, and factors in restrictions such as ULEZ and congestion zones, and low bridges, so routes are achievable from the moment they're planned, not just efficient on paper.

How does Access MaxOptra integrate with our existing ERP, WMS, or telematics?

Access MaxOptra has an open API and established integrations across CRM, ERP, WMS, SOP and telematics platforms, so order data flows into your route plans without manual re-keying.

What does Access MaxOptra cost, and is there a free trial?

Access MaxOptra is cloud-based with no large upfront infrastructure costs, and pricing scales with your fleet size, so you only pay for what you use. Get in touch and we'll put together a package that fits your operation.
