Executive Summary
Chaintrack is a Canadian logistics management company that has developed
a mesh of IoT devices and cloud to track shipments which require precision
temperature monitoring intelligently. They aim to reduce wastage of goods
during transits.
Chaintrack has a web application for the managers to keep track of orders,
drivers, and vehicles. There is a mobile application for the drivers to get
routes, order details, order pickup and drop off bar code scanning, and a
notification based communication mechanism.

Challenge
Chaintrack’s success was dependent on an efficient route plan for the orders
assigned to a particular vehicle. The orders assigned can be a pickup,
dropoff, or pickup-dropoff. Vehicle was assigned to a depot and route needs
to consider all these constraints. The route was not only supposed to be the
shortest path in the network but should also cater to all the limitations on an
order posed by its manager.
After the order is built successfully, the route details should be pushed to the
mobile application for the driver with the details and plans for the particular
day. The driver should be able to perform operations on the orders.

After the order is built successfully, the route details should be pushed to the
mobile application for the driver with the details and plans for the particular
day. The driver should be able to perform operations on the orders.
Solution
Our solution is a highly effective route generation algorithm which takes all
the order details, arranges them in the sequence by calculating the shortest
distance between the two points. Our application gives managers the
flexibility to create a route for a particular day or for all the orders at once.
The algorithm is also robust to figure out changes in the order details and
quickly re-route itself to provide an accurate and efficient path for the driver.
The mobile application combines all the components of an order from the
web and provides it to the driver for processing. The IoT devices placed in
the vehicle sends a stream of data to the application, which helps the driver
to keep track of the temperature of shipment.
The application helps the driver to view the route to be followed on a particular day and navigate to a specific destination.

Features
Chaintrack’s application allows users to create orders and add items to a
particular order. The orders are then assigned to a vehicle. After this
assignment, the route is created by the manager, which is pushed to the
mobile application for the driver to view.
particular order. The orders are then assigned to a vehicle. After this
assignment, the route is created by the manager, which is pushed to the
mobile application for the driver to view.
The driver can view the route for a particular day. They need to scan all the
items of a particular order to start the order. The application helps them
navigate to the destination, once the driver reaches the destination they can
end the order by again scanning all the items and taking an order
confirmation signature from the recipient.
In between if the order doesn't meet the quality standard or if there are some other contingencies, the driver can skip the order as well.
