Abstract: A system and method of automated driver selection is disclosed. A plurality of driver profiles and a first order are received. Each of the driver profiles includes at least one driver parameter. The first order includes at least one order parameter. A driver score is calculated for each of the plurality of driver profiles for the first order. The driver score is calculated based on the at least one driver parameter and the at least one order parameter. Each driver profile is ranked based on the calculated driver score and a first delivery assignment request is transmitted to a system associated with a first-ranked driver profile. A response is received to the first delivery assignment request.

Abstract: This application relates to apparatus and methods for batching orders for delivery. In some examples, a computing device may obtain order data identifying at least a first order and a second order. The computing device may determine whether the first order can be delivered to a first delivery address and the second order can be delivered to a second delivery address within a delivery time window. Based on the determination, the computing device may batch the first order and the second order to generate a batched order. In some examples, the computing device determines if the delivery vehicle can store the items for the first order and the second order to determine whether the orders may be batched. The computing device may generate assignment data identifying an assignment of the batched order to a delivery vehicle, and may transmit the assignment data to another computing device.

Abstract: A system is provided and generally includes a server (e.g., application server), an associate computing device, and a client computing device. The server can receive a user arrival notification that indicates a user has arrived to pick up purchased goods. The server can transmit a scan initiation request to a remote terminal that causes the remote terminal to scan at least one network. The server can receive scan data for the scanned network from the remote terminal indicating, for example, a signal strength of that network. The server can determine a current wait time based on the received scan data for the scanned network, and can transmit the current wait time to the remote terminal.
