Use the Bringg Platform to manage the entire order flow and fulfillment process.

A Typical Day

Use Bringg to dispatch planned or on demand orders assigned to your teams.

1. Bringg can automatically schedule orders with your consumers.
   When consumers add their orders in your web store, Bringg dynamically checks each order's requirements against your delivery capacity and availability, to suggest delivery windows when you can fulfill that order. Your company can offer consumers choices like express shipping, green delivery, Click and Collect options, and so on, all validated in real time by Bringg.
   Automatically offer delivery windows to consumers 
2. Let Bringg build optimized delivery routes automatically.
   • (on demand orders  only) Bringg's AutoDispatch rapidly creates and assigns routes as your consumers place orders. With AutoDispatch you can automatically batch orders together to create routes, while keeping to very short SLAs.

     Then easily adjust them using the route planner to add, remove or move orders between routes. You can also experiment with moving orders around, and get a quick view of how the changes impact metrics like route duration, distance, stops per hour, and intersections between drivers. Keep the changes when they improve your results.
     Bringg highlights any unassigned orders and presents the routes on a map and timeline, so you get the full picture while preparing routes and guiding drivers on the road. Learn more
