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	$5,199	95.2%	131.5 mi	9	—	$878	2
2	EMS	11	$222	4.1%	30.2 mi	2	—	$2,475	3
3	Kiosk	6	$40	0.7%	9.8 mi	1	—	—	3

By State

States with the highest total avoidable travel cost.

#	State	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Impact	Avg Excess	Flew
1	PA	77	$5,475		106.1 mi	—

By City

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

#	City	State	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Avg Excess	Flew
1	Philadelphia	PA	43	$3,225	112.0 mi	—
2	Langhorne	PA	16	$1,974	184.1 mi	—
3	Carbondale	PA	4	$31	11.5 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	Kourtney Smith	77	$5,475		106.1 mi	12	—	$4,263	7

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.
