  • Patent number: 11948109
    Abstract: Techniques for planning resources using block and route information are described. In an example, a computing system determines a demand for item transportation expected during a planning horizon. The computing system determines information about a pre-planned transportation resource available during the planning horizon and costs associated with the pre-planned transportation resource. The computing system uses an optimization model to determine a block having a time length, a tour to transport, during the block, a first portion of the demand using the pre-planned transportation resource, and a second portion of the demand to be transported using an on-demand transportation resource. The computing system indicates, to a first computing device of the pre-planned transportation resource, an assignment of the block to the pre-planned transportation resource.
