Improving Profitability and Competitiveness in the Supply Chain
• Strategic Network Design– Pick the optimal number, location, and size of warehouses – Optimize the trade-offs between number of facilities and service levels– Optimize the trade-offs between transportation and warehousing costs – Determine optimal sourcing strategy– Determine best distribution channels
• Tactical Planning– Develop an optimal supply chain plan for the next 3-12 months
• Optimize the trade-offs between production, inventory and warehousing• Identify potential supply chain bottlenecks early to avoid disruptions and costs
– Share supply chain plan with geographically dispersed managers• Share supply chain production plan with each of the plant mangers• Provide warehouse managers with shipping and storage requirements

Typical Tactical/Operational Issues
• Inventory/customer service trade-offs• Production/distribution coordination• Inventory/forecasting management• Transportation consolidation• Routing and scheduling

Logistics Analysis Methodologies
• Analytical
• Optimization
• Heuristics
• Simulation
Supply Chain Logistics Management, First Edition , Bowersox, Closs, and CooperCopyright© 2002 by The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.
Analytical Methodology
• Using standard numerical/statistical methods, such as those available through spreadsheets or statistical software to evaluate each logistical alternative
• Examples– Determine the inventory/service trade-offs using safety stock and fill
rate formulae
– Determine the order cycle time that currently would be required to deliver 95% of customer orders
– Determine the transportation dollar benefits for consolidating LTL orders into TL orders

Optimization
• Determine the best answer to problems where objective functions and constraints can be expressed in mathematical terms
• Appropriate for applications involving sweeping changes to the logistics systems
• Limitations include computing time/capacity and utility of generalized mathematical expressions
• Example– Determine the best location for distribution facilities subject to
meeting supply, demand, and delivery time constraints
Supply Chain Logistics Management, First Edition , Bowersox, Closs, and CooperCopyright© 2002 by The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. All rights reserved.
Heuristics
• Using “rules of thumb” to direct the analytical process toward the best solution
• Appropriate for both large scale optimization and simulation models
• Advantages include speed and understanding compared to optimization techniques
• Limitation is that “optimal” solution may not be found
• Example– Locate distribution centers only where demand exceeds a given
threashold

Benefits of Heuristics
• Exploit the experience of management and analysts– Warehouses should be located near centers of greatest
demand– TL shipments should be made to consumers directly from
manufacturing locations– Only warehouse those items with a substantial differential
between inbound and outbound transportation costs– The next warehouse to add to a distribution system is the
one that shows the greatest cost savings

Simulation
• Conducting experiments using a precise representation of a real system to understand its behavior or to evaluate strategies for its operation (“What if” analysis)
• Appropriate when:– Studying impact of change to a limited number of variables
– A more exact representation of the process is needed
– Customer order/stock keeping unit level of detail is needed

Optimization ?
Business Optimization
• LP/MILP/GA etc. search based solve.• Conditions of certainty with some probability• Execution of a calculation• Ideal (single) answer to the formulated problem.
• Mathematical/Heuristics execution based run.• Process flow and logic• Conditions of uncertainty, randomness and variability• Execution of a process• Realistic (95%) answer to the modeled problem.
Each technique is particularly strong at solving different types of problems, and therefore should not be seen as competing

Range of Planning Requirements
• Network optimization• Supply chain dynamics• Demand planning• Supply planning• Transportation planning

Network Optimization
• Determine the appropriate network of the supply chain by addressing strategic questions such as the following:– Where should plants and DCs be located?
– Which plants or DCs should be shut down?
– Which market areas should be served by each DC?
– Which DCs should stock each product?
– Which vendors should be used for long-term contracts?

• Plant vs. distribution center location• Static vs. dynamic time horizon• Stochastic vs. deterministic data• Single vs. multiple products• Continuous vs. discrete approaches• Spatial vs. temporal dimensions• Profit vs. cost optimization

Operating Policies
• Products “bundled” for sourcing. All LTL and UPS shipments are sourced from a common DC based on the lowest inbound + outbound transportation cost. Premium shipments have a different source.
• Supplier locations held constant.• Market assignments for all DCs are based on
minimizing combined inbound and outbound transportation.
• Location impact of inventory is projected using the “square root of N” rule with a 20% annual inventory carrying cost

Supply Chain Dynamics
• Exploring the relationship and operating dynamics between supply chain operations and partners. Specific questions include:– What are the relevant trade-offs between service
objectives, uncertainty, and inventory level?– How does forecast, demand, and lead time uncertainty
impact supply chain inventory and performance?
