By Vertical

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

By State

States with the highest total avoidable travel cost.

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	Kaitlyn Kelch	72	$2,007		41.6 mi	11	✈ 1	$21,908	5

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.
