Abstract:
Described are platforms, systems, media, and methods for maintaining a database of items associated with one or more skill requirements and a visit duration; maintaining a database of experts associated with one or more skill proficiencies, a location, and a schedule; receiving a request from a consumer for delivery by an expert of one or more items in the database to a consumer address; identifying experts in the database having skill proficiencies matching the skill requirements of the one or more items and available in a timeslot for the visit duration of the one or more items; presenting timeslots for which one or more experts are identified to the consumer and allowing the consumer to select a timeslot; and selecting an expert from among the identified experts in the selected timeslot based on shortest travel time; provided that utilization of the selected expert exceeds a predetermined utilization threshold.

Claim (Index 26):
A parallel computer-implemented multimodal method of providing high-utilization logistics for a scheduling a plurality of real-time orders and future orders within a set processing period, the method comprising:\n a) maintaining, in a computer storage, a database of items, each item associated with a skill requirement, a visit duration, a burden score, a time-of-day requirement, and a SKU; b) maintaining, in the computer storage, a database of experts, each expert associated with a skill proficiency and a current expert schedule; c) maintaining, in the computer storage, a database of one or more mobile inventory units (MIUs), each MIU associated with a stock of items, a current MIU position, and a current MIU schedule; d) receiving, by a computer, a real-time order and a future order from a consumer for delivery of one or more of the items to a consumer address, during a delivery timeslot, the delivery by at least one of the experts; e) performing a parallel real-time mode comprising:\n (i) determining, by the computer, one or more possible delivery schemes by applying a first operational rule to the real-time order, the experts, and the one or more MIUs; \n (ii) filtering, by the computer, the one or more possible delivery schemes to select one or more filtered delivery schemes, wherein the filtering comprises applying a second operational rule to the possible delivery schemes; and \n (iii) scoring, by the computer, the filtered delivery schemes by applying a third operational rule to the filtered delivery schemes and determining which filtered delivery scheme has the best score; and \n f) performing a parallel future mode comprising:\n (i) assigning, by the computer, a zone to each future order based on the consumer address; and \n (ii) determining in parallel, by the computer, a plurality of future delivery schemes for each of a plurality of future days based on the zone, the experts, the MIUs, or any combination thereof, wherein the future delivery scheme comprises a plurality of the orders within a delivery window on one of the future days; \n wherein the filtered delivery scheme with the best score or the future delivery scheme meets or exceeds a predetermined utilization threshold.
