Verdict
The case is there, but data comes first
Your route is complex enough to justify an optimiser. What is missing is not the software: it is orders in a format a machine can read without someone retyping them every morning.

What this means in your case
- As long as orders start on paper or get rebuilt by hand, any optimiser adds a data-entry step instead of removing one.
- The first move is not picking a vendor: it is checking whether the system you already have can export the day’s orders, even as a simple file.
- Without a plan-versus-executed comparison you will not be able to show internally that the investment worked, whatever the vendor claims.
Where you would not gain
- Be wary of anyone proposing you start anyway: an optimisation project resting on manual re-entry gets abandoned within months.
