Data advantageTelematics and route data
→UPS built ORION from data gathered by its drivers' handheld devices and vehicle telematics, and spent about a decade developing it before the 2013 rollout. It cost $250 million to build and deploy, and UPS expected it to save $300 million to $400 million a year. The company said the software is tailored to UPS operations, and it still encourages drivers to override its sequence when they see a better option.
