Esri Announces the 2010 ArcLogistics Government Grant Program

Esri grants will help state and local
governments get started using ArcLogistics.

Esri wants to help governments that, in today's tough economy, have to find ways to do more for their constituents with less. The 2010 ArcLogistics Government Grant Program will award up to $450,000 in ArcLogistics subscriptions to state and local governments.

ArcLogistics is Esri's cloud-based vehicle routing and scheduling solution designed to create optimized fleet and mobile workforce routes and schedules. Anyone in state and local government responsible for finding locations, assigning stops to vehicles, and sequencing those stops while factoring in time, cost, capacity, and productivity, is encouraged to apply for a grant.

Government tasks where ArcLogistics could be used to save time, costs, and fuel include

• Health, housing, and building inspections
• Property appraisals
• Graffiti removal and street sign service
• Solid waste disposal
