🎯 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	53	$14,940	89.8%	420.7 mi	43	—	$2,129	11
2	Project	6	$1,696	10.2%	421.9 mi	6	✈ 2	$10,596	2

By State

States with the highest total avoidable travel cost.

#	State	WOs	Avoidable Cost	Avg Excess	Flew
1	WI	10	$7,218	1,077.3 mi	—
2	SC	23	$3,722	241.5 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	Jennifer Johnson	59	$16,636		420.9 mi	49	✈ 2	$12,725	11

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.
