Logistics Network Design with Differentiated Delivery Lead-Time: Benefits and Insights

Cheong, Michelle L.F., Bhatnagar, Rohit, Graves, Stephen C. 01 1900 (has links)
Most logistics network design models assume exogenous customer demand that is independent of the service time or level. This paper examines the benefits of segmenting demand according to lead-time sensitivity of customers. To capture lead-time sensitivity in the network design model, we use a facility grouping method to ensure that the different demand classes are satisfied on time. In addition, we perform a series of computational experiments to develop a set of managerial insights for the network design decision making process. / Singapore-MIT Alliance (SMA)

the research of the outsourcing logistics activities and the logistic outsourcing considered factors.

Kuo, Wen-Pin 20 June 2000 (has links)
The outsourcing of the business logistics activities have became a trend. The goals of my research want to understand that: (1) The outsourcing extent of the logistics activities. (2) The logistics outsourcing considered factors. (3) How the firm size affect the (1) and (2). (4) How the logistics network complexity affect the (1) and (2). The research¡¯s samples are the PC and peripheral equipment companies in Taiwan. The capital, the revenue, and the number of the employee measure the size of a firm. The logistics network complexity is measured by the number of the customers, the number of the suppliers, the number of the countries that customers in, and the number of the countries that the suppliers in. The result shows that the companies think the cost saving factors is most important when they decide to outsource the activity. The great extent of the traffic transportation, salvage and scrap disposal and return goods handling are outsourced. The companies whose sizes are small put great emphasis on the ¡°logistics information systems¡± factors. The big companies have a tendency to outsource the physical moved activities like traffic transportation, salvage and scrap disposal. The small companies are apt to outsource the process handling activities. In the logistics network complexity, the suppliers make greater difference in the outsourcing logistics activities than the customers. The numbers of the countries affect the logistics outsourcing considered factors.

Otimização da configuração de cadeia de suprimentos com análise complementar de competitividade dos cenários. / Supply chain network design optimization with additional competitive analysis of scenarios,

Lauterbach, Johann da Paz 08 March 2018 (has links)
Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar a influência do ambiente competitivo na solução de problemas de localização de instalações e desenho da cadeia desenvolvendo um modelo matemático que captasse simultaneamente muitos dos aspectos práticos que impactam no funcionamento da cadeia de suprimentos. A seleção destes aspectos foi baseada nos comentários e sugestões que autores desta linha de pesquisa propuseram para aprofundamento da literatura da área. Foi desenvolvido um modelo de programação linear inteira mista (PLIM) aplicando-o em um problema exemplo para avaliar a hipótese de que a configuração de menor custo da cadeia não necessariamente proporciona maior acessibilidade ao mercado e, em seguida, o mesmo modelo foi aplicado a um problema real, de maior porte, no setor de fertilizantes. / The goal of this study was to evaluate the influence of a competitive environment in solving facility location and network design problems by developing a mathematical model that could capture several of the practical aspects that influence both decisions and operations of the supply chain. The selection of these aspects was based on the comments and suggestions proposed by several authors of this field of the literature. The mathematical program developed is based on mixed integer linear programming (MILP) and is firstly applied on an example problem to evaluate the hypothesis that the chain configuration that provides the lowest cost not necessarily also provides the greatest accessibility to the market. Afterwards, the same optimization model is applied to a larger real problem in the fertilizer industry.

[en] AN INTEGRATED MODEL FOR LOGISTICS NETWORK DESIGN OF FACILITY LOCATION, PRODUCTION, TRANSPORTATION AND INVENTORY DECISIONS / [pt] UM MODELO INTEGRADO PARA O PROJETO DE REDES LOGÍSTICAS COM DECISÕES DE LOCALIZAÇÃO DE INSTALAÇÕES, PRODUÇÃO, TRANSPORTE E ESTOQUES

MARCELO MACIEL MONTEIRO 12 July 2016 (has links)
[pt] O trabalho tem como objetivo desenvolver uma formulação matemática para o problema de projeto de redes logísticas que seja integrado e flexível de modo a contemplar escolhas de localização de instalações, transporte, produção e estoques. O projeto de redes considera seleção de fornecedores, plantas e armazéns e de opções de transportes, com alocação de produtos para plantas de manufatura e armazéns, e ainda consideram questões de estocagem na rede logística como custos de manutenção e de obtenção de estoques. A formulação resultante é um modelo de programação não linear inteira mista, feita para um único período com a demanda estocástica. Por ser um problema NP-Difícil, para a resolução do problema proposto foi utilizado o algoritmo Outer-Approximation, que foi testando por meio do dimensionamento de três classes distintas. / [en] This thesis aims to develop a mathematical formulation to an integrated and flexible logistics network design that include choices of facility locations, transportation, production and inventories. The network designs consider vendors, plants, warehouses and transportation modes choices. The proposed model considers products assignment to plants and warehouses, inventory holding and procurement costs. The mathematical formulation of the model is a Mixer Integer Non Linear Program (MINLP) problem, referring to a single period with stochastic demand. The problem is NP-Hard and we used the Outer-Approximation algorithmic as the method to resolve the model proposed. We tested the algorithmic for three different instances (scenarios).

Modelagem de redes logísticas com vários elos: influência dos impostos e do custo de carregamento de estoques. / Network design with several echelons: influence of taxes and inventory carrying cost.

Hamad, Ricardo 06 December 2013 (has links)
Este trabalho analisa o impacto do Imposto sobre Circulação de Mercadorias e Serviços (ICMS) e do Imposto de Importação (II), assim como a influência dos estoques operacionais e de segurança, na solução de problemas de localização em âmbito global, envolvendo vários elos da cadeia de suprimentos. Foi proposta uma metodologia e um modelo de Programação Linear Inteira Mista que minimiza os custos operacionais, levando em conta o melhor aproveitamento do benefício fiscal drawback, os créditos referentes ao ICMS e o custo de estoque total da cadeia. As conclusões obtidas após a implantação do método e do modelo matemático em quatro grandes empresas transnacionais do segmento agrícola, com altos volumes de crédito de ICMS, mostram que os impostos são mais representativos do que os custos logísticos na definição de uma rede logística para esse tipo de empresa e que os estoques de segurança afetam diretamente o resultado da otimização. Os resultados mostram, ainda, a necessidade de se considerar pelo menos quatro elos da cadeia para problemas do tipo aqui analisado e que o estoque operacional, as restrições de capacidade de armazenagem e o custo financeiro estão fortemente correlacionados com a quantidade de Centros de Distribuição. Conclui-se que a legislação do ICMS impõe, para uma melhoria no fluxo de caixa, um aumento significativo nos custos logísticos. As principais contribuições da metodologia adotada são (1) o tratamento dos custos do estoque operacional e de segurança, (2) a inclusão da capacidade de armazenagem, (3) a avaliação do impacto do crédito de ICMS não utilizado sobre o custo total e sobre o fluxo de caixa das empresas e (4) o processo de concorrência para coleta de preços. O modelo desenvolvido é principalmente útil para empresas que operam no segmento de agronegócio e/ou são exportadoras, por conta da influência dos créditos de ICMS não aproveitados. A metodologia permitiu melhorias no fluxo de caixa da ordem de US$ 22 milhões em uma das empresas, equivalentes a 5% de seu custo total. / This work studies the impact of taxes and the influence of cycle and safety stocks on a global network design with several echelons. The proposed methodology and Mixed Integer Linear Programming model aimed to minimize the operational costs, taking into consideration the taxes involved and the chain inventory value. The approach has been implemented in four large agribusiness transnational companies with high level of credit of a State tax showing that, for this type of company, taxes are more significant than logistic cost for facility location decisions. Another conclusion is that the supply chain must be modeled with four echelons at least for problems such as the ones herein studied and that cycle stock, storage capacity and the financial cost have a high correlation with the amount of Distribution Centers. The results show also the direct impact of safety stock on the network design optimization. It is concluded that tax legislation imposes a significant increase in the logistics costs for a cash flow gain. The main contributions of this methodology are (1) the treatment of total inventory cost and (2) storage capacity, (3) the analysis of these factors and tax on companies cash flow management and (4) the bidding approach to gather logistic costs. The math model is especially useful for agribusiness and/or exporting companies that have a high level of tax credit. The methodology has brought cash flow improvements of about US$ 22 million in one of the companies, or 5% of its total cost.

多處理廠環境下逆物流最適訂單接受量與處理量之研究

李惠卿, Lee, Huei Ching Unknown Date (has links)
逆物流(reverse logistics)代表了將使用過的產品從消費者手上收回、並將此資源重新在市場上再利用的一連串物流活動。其配送成本往往比正向物流高,對於回送之產品,在運送、儲存、處理、管理方面亦無規律通路,較正向供應鏈增加許多的複雜性和不確定性,企業往往選擇將逆向物流之活動外包給專業物流服務商。 / 對逆向物流服務商來說,既以營利為目標,便有營運範疇內法規、利潤、運輸成本、營運成之考量。過去逆向物流方面之研究主題,多以逆向供應鏈上的廠址設置為主,本研究針對同時具有多個處理廠的逆物流服務供應商進行探討,建立適合的營運模式,考慮多時期、多個逆物流處理廠、多種型態的退回商品,建立一數量決策模式,以逆物流服務商的最大營運利潤為目標,探討逆物流之下的最適合再生物料接受訂單數量、以及個別逆物流處理中心之最適合當期處理量,考慮可能因退回商品回收量之不確定性、處理產出比率的不確定性影響處理廠之中再生物料的實際產量。對於模式當中的不確定因子,本研究建構以情境為基礎的穩健最佳化之模式求得穩健解。 / Reverse logistics reflects a serial of activities including collecting return products from consumers, recycling, reusing, and reducing the amount of materials used. Implementing reverse logistics is complicated and costs more than forward logistics to a firm. Furthermore, there is not a regular way to handle those transportation, storage, processing and management process. In order to reduce cost and focus on core business, industries choose to outsource those processes to third-party reverse logistics provider. / Previous literatures used to focus on the topic of facility location allocation or designing the infrastructure of reverse logistics distribution channels. From a reverse logistics provider perspective, this research concerned about the operational profit of the reverse logistics service provider who has multiple collection sites and refurbishing processing facilities. This research attempts to maximum the net-profit and presents a multi-period, multiple processing facilities, and multi-type return products to optimize the solution of the quantity of processing return products in each refurbishing processing facilities and the quantity of used material ordered by industries. The formulation uses a scenario-based robust optimization approach to solve those uncertainty factors such as the volume of product collection, the usage rate of return product in this model.
