Route-Based Delivery Efficiency & Bakery Operations Dashboard
Context: Small Bakery Serving Homes and Businesses in Cluj-Napoca
Project Overview
I am able to develop a comprehensive, data-driven dashboard designed to analyze route-based delivery efficiency, optimize bakery production schedules, and minimize product returns for a small bakery serving both residential and business customers in Cluj-Napoca.
The dashboard will consolidate operational, delivery, and sales data into a single analytical view, enabling management to monitor performance, identify inefficiencies, and make informed operational decisions.
Dashboard Objectives
The primary objectives of the dashboard are to:
Evaluate delivery efficiency across different routes
Identify bottlenecks and delays in last-mile delivery
Optimize bakery production schedules based on route demand
Reduce product returns and waste
Support data-driven logistics and inventory planning
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
The dashboard will include clearly defined KPIs that reflect both logistics and bakery operations performance:
Delivery & Route KPIs
Total Deliveries per Route
Average Delivery Time per Route
On-Time Delivery Rate (%)
Distance Covered vs. Time Taken
Delivery Cost per Route (if available)
Returns & Quality KPIs
Total Returned Items
Return Rate (%) per Route
Returns by Product Type
Returns by Customer Type (Home vs. Business)
Production & Demand KPIs
Total Products Produced
Products Delivered per Route
Demand Variance (Produced vs. Delivered)
High-Waste Products
Route-Based Delivery Efficiency Analysis
The dashboard will provide in-depth route analysis using:
Route comparison charts to evaluate efficiency across different delivery paths
Average delivery time analysis to detect slow or inefficient routes
Delivery volume by route, highlighting high-demand areas
Heatmaps or bar charts to visually identify routes with frequent delays or high return rates
This allows the bakery to optimize delivery planning and adjust route assignments.
