[QUOTE="Myron, post: 457558, member: 5496"] If LD is correct and new addresses and stops are put into the Loop Detail as they are found in the proper sequence range; the set-up of a vehicle should become easier and easier for a driver having little area knowledge. PAS has the ability to assist in educating new drivers on proper deliver order IF THE LD IS correct and EDD is right. If Loop Detail is not kept up or is bad, then PAS will make the load much worse then before. ...BUT THIS IS NOT THE DESIGN OF PAS; and if you ask the DPS supervisors based on how much pressure they are under; they know this is the case. As LD gets better the driver job gets easier from a route knowledge standpoint. Obviously there is some skill involved in driving but shortly, the part time drivers that will be delivering ground as a byproduct of the new contract will allow you to see this first hand. That is, how much of a factor PAS, EDD and LD are on simplifying the driver's job; enabling inexperienced, less knowledgeable people to work effectively at lower cost. HOAKSTER is likely right on the money with precursor timeframe. I remember discussing the use of PAS alongside dense code applications for autosort; long before 1997. The strike only served to intensify PAS roll out; and the last contract became a standing corporate implentation deadline. [/QUOTE]
