- 1
Match
Route360 identifies the drivers and vehicles that meet the route requirements and shows you why they’re a match.

Check
Route360 checks the requirements before the route is published and clearly flags anything that needs attention.

Send routes to drivers for acceptance and see who has accepted, who’s still pending and what has changed.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Route360 decide which driver suits a route?
Route360 uses available driver and vehicle information to assess potential matches, including availability, licence and skill requirements, work and rest information, vehicle capacity and availability, depot, operating area and existing assignments. Dispatchers can see the relevant information before making the final assignment.
What stops an unsafe or non compliant assignment going out?
Route360 flags potential conflicts before a route is published, including driver availability, licence requirements, work and rest limits, vehicle capacity and maintenance status. Dispatchers can review and resolve any issues before the route goes out.
Do drivers have to accept a route?
Yes. Published routes are sent to drivers for acceptance, while the dispatch board shows which routes are accepted, pending or declined.
What happens when a driver becomes unavailable mid shift?
Route360 flags the affected routes and identifies suitable replacement drivers. You can compare the impact on ETAs, distance and time windows before choosing a replacement. Once reassigned, the updated route is published and the driver and customers are notified.
Where does the driver and vehicle data come from?
Drive360 provides the driver and vehicle information Route360 needs for assignment, including availability, licences, work and rest status, vehicle capacity and maintenance readiness. Route360 then handles the route assignment, publishing and updates.
