Data
We set out to introduce higher precision estimated delivery windows, with time frames as narrow as two hours. This presented a challenge as our parcels are part of a broader traffic mix of which a large portion is not digitally visible. By filtering and linking the 80GB of GPS data that our posties collect each day we could generate a historic data set in combination with scan data, and apply data science models to predict doorstep delivery times. By using cloud solutions and combining regression techniques with confidence; calculations for each address has enabled us to provide reliable delivery windows to customers. This was possible due to excellent data quality, continuous communication and close collaboration.
Dr. Betty Schirrmeister - Principal Data Scientist
“Following my PhD in Computational Biology, I joined Royal Mail’s data science team in 2016. With its vast amount of data and good technological infrastructure, Royal Mail has great opportunities for data scientists to work on diverse problems, ranging from route optimisation, forecasting to general predictive analytics, which makes day to day work exciting and enjoyable. I love our team spirit, as well as the support and benefits Royal Mail is offering employees, which having become a mother recently has proven of great value.”
