A modified version of Concorde was used to solve the Whizzkids'96 vehicle routing problem, demonstrating that the winning solution in the 1996 competition was in fact optimal.  The problem consists of finding the best collection of routes for 4 newsboys to deliver papers to their 120 customers.   The team of David Applegate, William Cook, Sanjeeb Dash, and Andre Rohe received a 5,000 Gulden prize for their solution in February 2001 from the information technology firm CMG.
