[QUOTE="RetiredIE, post: 5317674, member: 38557"] ORION is a failure because the people expected to use it are not trained or supported in any meaningful way. I saw it work extremely well in early centers. In these centers, drivers were involved and their knowledge was used to configure parameters on their routes until they could execute. Map data was updated all the time. UPS spent millions of dollars on a promising technology and then completely dropped the ball. Another reason for the failure is that ORION needs a good basic loop and trace to start with. Letting ORION loose on a bad loop setup is a recipe for complete disaster. Add poorly maintained map data to that mix and you get as you say "utterly broken and ass-backward ORION solutions." Early results led to the ultimate failure. It was rushed out and important steps were ignored or cut in order to meet deployment timelines. If I were still driving, I would follow ORION 100% every day unless I had written instructions to the contrary. I would request OJS rides so the sup could demonstrate how it should be done. Shove their nose in it until they fix it or get promoted. [/QUOTE]
