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

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.

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.
