SOLUTION
ANGEL is an innovative delivery organization set up by Fiege Logistics to meet the last mile delivery challenge for E-commerce. With the rapid growth of European E-commerce sector, businesses faced the raising demand in last-mile delivery service, which entails the necessity of vehicle fleet growth.
Fiege Logistics found a way to satisfy the last-mile delivery demand without ballooning the fleets. Their collaborative system, called ANGEL, connects retailers, drivers, and vehicles and allows organizing last-mile delivery efficiently. By creating optimal delivery routes and combining deliveries for different retailers, ANGEL improves vehicle utilization, decreases road congestion, minimizes environment impact, and eventually allows all parties to achieve financial savings. For end customers, ANGEL ensures parcel delivery where and when it is comfortable for them.
The platform brings together all actors of the logistics chain and allows:
- Retailers to submit shipment orders, track shipment status
- ANGEL to plan optimal tours to collect and deliver shipments with regard to preferable delivery time
- Delivery companies to take over planned tours
- Drivers to get info about the routes (including map view), report start, route points and deliveries through a mobile app
- End-customers to get their shipment at a convenient time and location, receive up-to-date information about their shipment status, and be notified about expected delivery time
Sigma Software took over ANGEL’s development and support after the launch of its pilot. The platform got tested in live action and proved its benefits. As it often happens, field usage of the platform revealed areas for improvement and fine-tuning. Feedbacks from retailers, drivers, and delivery recipients as well as market analysis showed the features that were missing or required modification.

For the first stage, the platform got the following improvements:
- Full user interface redesign
- Tour planning made automatic
- New feature: possibility to add orders to existing tours on the go
These improvements will make working with the platform more intuitive, automate business processes, and cover non-standard situations in delivery workflows. All works at the project are performed using Agile/Scrum approach with continuous integration and continuous delivery ensuring stability in the development process and streamline feature delivery to production.
