3 Trips and cost in Flexdanmarks system Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 3/99

4 The Flex Concept FlexDanmark combines different trips from many different authorities, illustrated by the bricks below But citizens and their needs are not uniform they have different service needs and other requirements. Rehabilitation General Health Flex Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 4/99

5 The Flex Concept Each trip is described with all of its needs, requirements and flexibility (or lack thereof). Authorities are able to adjust the flexibility (i.e. the time or service) which will increase or decrease utilization. General Health General Health General Health Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 5/99

6 The Flex Concept Comparing the flex concept to the classic game of TETRIS, then becomes a way of explaining FlexDanmark and its core system s function of planning and optimization. The goal of the game is to create complete lines of bricks without any gaps, which in this analogy means an optimized planning with least wasted time. Combined & Optimized Utilization Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 6/99

7 The Flex Concept The goal of the game is to create complete lines of bricks without any gaps, which in this analogy means an optimized planning without wasted time. The core system also identifies and books a resource which fits the requirements to execute the plan. Identified Resource (Vehicle) is Booked Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 7/99

8 The Flex Concept During the day of execution, future trips are continously optimized to ensure a minimum of gaps in the planning. Completed trips Current trips Future trips Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 8/99

9 The Flex Concept When all trips for a given day has been completed, the core system also calculates the cost for each authority on a per citizen level. Cost Allocation Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 9/99

14 CONCLUSION: There is a need for a standardized and singular integration point for accessing FlexDanmark s core system Municipal 3 Evaluation Booking Planning Execution Accounting Reporting Integration Layer Integration Platform Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 14/99

15 Why the Mixing? Why do we mix the scheduled transport with the individual variable transportation? + = Scheduled Transport Utilization Individual Variable Transport Utilization Combined Transport Utilization Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 15/99

16 New Basic Principle The PTOs buys resources (taxies and busses) from external private companies, and, combined with all the planned trips generated through different remote online ordering modules used by a number of authorities will optimize the utilization of that capacity (using a real-time planning engine).

19 We re creating a platform We re creating a platform that can receive orders from many different sources, and which supports planning with multiple optimization logics and modules. Developing a Platform Approach in Denmark 19 19/99
