WHY IT MATTERS
Better Vehicle and Driver Assignments Create More Efficient Operations
Assigning vehicles and drivers to trips together reduces unnecessary travel and waiting time, balances workloads, and simplifies the rostering process.
Reduce
unnecessary travel
Reduce the distance vehicles travel between trips to keep operating costs under control.
Balance
workloads
Distribute trips more evenly across vehicles and drivers to use available resources more efficiently.
Shorten
waiting times
Reduce long periods of idle time between trips and make better use of available vehicles and drivers.
Simplify
rostering
Create vehicle and driver assignments together to build a more organized foundation for rostering.
01
Bring your timetable and operational structure together
Cermoni works with your existing GTFS timetable or a demand-based timetable created within the system. Define routes, garages, vehicle and driver types, working rules, availability, and layover requirements.
02
Optimize vehicle and driver assignments
Cermoni calculates how vehicles move between trips, lines, terminals, and garages throughout the day. It assigns vehicles and drivers while balancing dead mileage, waiting time, workloads, and total cost.
03
Compare scenarios and complete your plan
Create multiple scenarios using different layover rules, cost assumptions, and resource targets. Compare the results and edit vehicle duties, driver assignments, or trip connections before finalizing the schedule.

Dead mileage and cost optimization
Cermoni calculates how vehicles move between trips, terminals, garages, and routes. Define your priorities and find the right balance between dead mileage, waiting time, service feasibility, and total operating cost.
Track vehicle movements between trips, garages, and routes.
Define cost priorities based on your operational needs.
Balance dead mileage, waiting time, and total cost.
Reduce unnecessary mileage without losing operational balance
Flexible constraint-based scheduling
Cermoni considers different garages, regions, vehicle and driver types, working rules, availability windows, layover requirements, and operational restrictions. Configure these rules through the interface and create schedules that reflect real operating conditions.
Creates vehicle and driver assignments that reflect real operating conditions.
Prevents assignments that conflict with working rules or availability.
Adapts to different network, fleet, and workforce structures.

Scenario comparison and editable assignments
Create scheduling scenarios using different assumptions and parameters. Compare vehicle count, driver count, dead mileage, waiting time, and total cost, then edit the selected plan using your operational experience.
Test different layover rules, costs, and resource targets.
Compare the operational and financial impact of each scenario.
Edit vehicle duties, driver assignments, and trip connections.
