The Business Challenge:
The number, location and size of distribution facilities and plants form the basis of the supply chain. Decisions on what facilities to open or close as well as how to distribute from these facilities should be made on an on-going basis. Over time, the customer base, products and facilities change therefore a consistent, systematic approach to reviewing the network is critical to maximize savings and other opportunities.
Strategic Network Design:
Network design is the planning activity that has the potential to generate the most savings in supply chain costs. Our proven technology has the ability to optimize the many options and trade-offs associated with site selection. This allows modelers to analyze their supply chains including current and potential facilities and the costs associated with them, including detailed transportation, customer demand and service level data. Companies benefit from reviewing multiple scenarios to better understand current status and various alternative options, costs associated with them and the opportunities for savings.
