Improvement to Appointments functionality

o As Is Appointments functionality Appointments are currently limited to particular

route days with a maximum threshold of appointment slots per route

• e.g. appointments in Tullamore town are on route days only (Tue, Thurs and Fri) with a maximum capacity of 2 slots per day

o To Be Appointments functionality Existing route based approach retired Appointment availability will be based on capacity

(resources) to deliver – more flexible No restriction on particular days if capacity is

available i.e. increase in available appointment days and more choice for customers

• e.g. appointments in Tullamore town possible on any day of the week, availability matched to actual capacity, appointments will influence work schedules
