Abstract

Example systems, methods, and apparatus to optimize autonomous vehicle workflows are disclosed. An example apparatus includes at least one memory; instructions; and a processor to execute the instructions to determine an expected arrival time for an autonomous vehicle at a first location, the autonomous vehicle to deliver a first product to the first location in response to a first task assigned to the autonomous vehicle, the first product associated with a first order; perform a comparison between the expected arrival time for the autonomous vehicle and an expected arrival time associated with a second task; select a third task to be performed by the autonomous vehicle based on the comparison, the third task selected for having the autonomous vehicle arrive at the first location after performance of the third task within a threshold time of the expected arrival time; and instruct the autonomous vehicle to perform the third task.
