$1 billion? It's literally 1 billion reasons to pay attention to solving the right problem. S.F. EXPRESS CO. LTD took a multi-stage approach to redesigning their network: first they optimized the air, then the ground, then finally in-city. This led them to a reduced carbon footprint, more parcels, and lower costs. Like $1 billion in lower costs. How does one do such a complicated thing and what sorts of skillsets do you need? Listen to the Resoundingly Human podcast interview with Yixiao Huang and Fei Gao to find out. https://lnkd.in/gP4EsbzX (Spoiler alert: things never work right the first time. The word 'perseverence' surfaces!) Does your company have a similar accomplishment? Consider submitting to this year's Edelman prize. Are you nowhere close, and want to level up? Reach out to INFORMS - it's where the world's leading analytic talent is sitting, just waiting for a good-n-complicated problem to solve. Flagging Warren Powell in case he has thoughts on this framed as a sequential decision problem, and Zohar Strinka to see her thoughts on solving the meta-problem? #analytics #SFExpress #UCDavisMSBA
