Guide angle
Dispatch is the operational bridge between a planned route and real delivery work in the field.
What to understand
What last-mile dispatch means
- Daily delivery work is allocated to routes, drivers, and vehicles.
- Dispatchers release reviewed work to drivers and monitor progress.
- Exceptions such as failed deliveries, late starts, route changes, and device issues need a clear operating path.
Monitoring active deliveries
- Status updates show route progress.
- Live location can support visibility when mobile location streaming is enabled.
- Mission progress, failed states, completed states, and proofed statuses should stay connected to the route history.
How Rouptimize supports dispatch
- Rouptimize connects dispatcher map review, driver and vehicle assignment, driver mobile app visibility, live monitoring, proof-code completion, and reports.

Where Rouptimize fits
Rouptimize connects this topic to real route planning, mission management, dispatch, driver mobile workflows, monitoring, proof-code delivery verification, reports, and route-order-credit billing. It should not be described with unsupported claims such as photo proof, customer tracking links, live traffic AI, unrestricted internal API access, guaranteed savings, or predictive analytics. The documented Integration API v1 remains available under its published authentication and scope rules.
FAQ
What does a dispatcher need before assigning routes?
A dispatcher needs a planned route, available driver, available vehicle, branch/date context, route stop list, and enough confidence that capacity and timing are workable.
Can dispatch teams change routes after optimization?
They should be able to review and adjust routes before dispatch. Rouptimize supports route details and stop editing workflows.
