Abstract
This paper presents the work conducted on providing an efficient solution to the Vehicle Routing Problem considering all stages of a delivery process. The results are promising when compared to real-life data and depict the benefits of the application of ML algorithms in all stages of the process. A platform capable to monitor the various stages of the process was developed, and a number of ML models were incorporated to provide the best solution to a multiobjective problem. The results indicate on average a maximum of 25% distance saving, and a maximum of 14% regarding the total delivery time.
