🎯 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	Kiosk	14	$1,864	51.8%	198.7 mi	14	—	$519	2
2	FCO	103	$1,733	48.2%	25.1 mi	19	—	$16,158	9

By State

States with the highest total avoidable travel cost.

#	State	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Impact	Avg Excess	Flew
1	DC	120	$3,943		49.0 mi	—

By City

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

#	City	State	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Avg Excess	Flew
1	Washington	DC	81	$3,144	57.9 mi	—
2	WASHINGTON	DC	36	$607	25.2 mi	—
3	Washington D.C	DC	3	$192	95.4 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	Avg Excess	Outliers	Flew	Actual Expense	Techs Used
1	Melissa Owens	5	$854	254.9 mi	5	—	$30	2
2	Rich Fosbury	7	$438	93.3 mi	6	—	$1,686	4
3	Cristina Everetts	8	$84	15.7 mi	1	—	$217	2

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.

#	Technician	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Avg Actual Dist	Avg Excess	Outliers	Flew	States	Actual Expense
