🎯 Low Hanging Fruit — Biggest Drivers of Excess Travel Cost

Ranked by total avoidable cost across five dimensions. Focus on the top items in each category for the highest ROI improvements.

By Vertical

Which service verticals generate the most excess travel? Clinical Education stands out with very high per-WO excess.

#	Vertical	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Impact	Avg Excess	Outliers	Flew	Actual Expense	Techs
1	Bed Services	59	$9,141	100%	231.2 mi	33	—	$245	8

By State

States with the highest total avoidable travel cost.

#	State	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Avg Excess	Flew
1	VA	19	$6,369	500.3 mi	—
2	NC	9	$1,526	253.0 mi	—
3	SC	27	$1,053	58.2 mi	—
4	FL	3	$194	96.3 mi	—

By City

Top cities by total avoidable cost. These are your biggest geographic hotspots.

#	City	State	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Avg Excess	Flew
1	Midlothian	VA	8	$3,067	572.2 mi	—

6	Pensacola	FL	3	$194	96.3 mi	—

By Coordinator

Coordinators whose dispatching decisions result in the most excess travel. High avg excess suggests systematic over-dispatching; high WO count with moderate excess suggests volume-driven impact.

#	Coordinator	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Impact	Avg Excess	Outliers	Flew	Actual Expense	Techs Used
1	Brandi Alvarez	59	$9,141		231.2 mi	33	—	$245	8

By Technician — Repeat Offenders

Techs who consistently travel far beyond the closest available option. High states-served count may indicate a roaming/national tech; high avg excess with few states suggests a misplaced home base.
