Licensed shared transport
Times are CareRoute planning estimates (Europe/London). “Transport confirmed” here means an existing seat on a confirmed route; repaired legs stay pending until approvals and allocation are recorded.
5. Financial and passenger impact
- Baseline (already allocated): £85.50
- Proposed plan, if all repairs confirmed: £98.20 (within £260.00 budget)
- Passenger legs planned: 12/12 (one-way legs)
- Proposed staff swaps: 1 (not applied — approval required)
- Unresolved legs: 0
Illustrative per-seat prices. Colleague contributions are passed to the driving colleague and are not CareRoute revenue.
Disruption testing
Vehicle unavailable
Assumption: Traveller CR23 ASH (v2) unavailable all day; all its runs removed.
Driver absence
Assumption: Marcus Bennett (d1) absent; no replacement driver confirmed.
Travel delay (+15 min)
Assumption: All journeys take 15 minutes longer than planned.
Late shift finish
Assumption: Daniel Price (a2) finishes 40 minutes late.
Colleague withdrawal
Assumption: Liam Hughes withdraws his commute offer.
Any unresolved journey — including ones already unresolved in the draft — means the plan is not marked successful. No reliability probabilities are estimated.
How the planning demo works
- Each assignment is matched to the cheapest standard licensed option at the worker's primary pickup that arrives by the required handover time and stays within their maximum ride.
- For each conflict, permitted repairs are checked: another accepted meeting point, a standby licensed vehicle, a voluntary colleague lift, licensed backup within budget, or a swap between eligible staff on identical shift times.
- The cheapest feasible repair is proposed, ties broken by fewest changes. It is a transparent rule-based heuristic on seeded data — not an optimisation engine.
