Example#1: Transportation, Problems
Can be formulated as linear
programs and solved by general
purpose linear programming codes.
However, there are many computer packages, which
contain separate computer codes for these models
which take advantage of their network structure.

Transportation Problem
The transportation problem seeks to
minimize the total shipping costs of
transporting goods from m origins
(each with a supply si ) to n destinations
(each with a demand dj ), when the unit
shipping cost from an origin, i, to a
destination, j, is cij.

– Reduced costs
• The unit shipment cost between
Gurgaon and N-Delhi must be reduced
by at least Rs.5, before it would become
economically feasible to utilize it
• If this route is used, the total cost will
increase by Rs. 5 for each case shipped
between Gurgaon and N-Delhi .

1515SlideSlideDr. R. Shankar, DMS, IIT Delhi (2012-13)
– Allowable Increase/Decrease
• This is the range of optimality.
• The unit shipment cost between Gurgaon
and N-Delhi may increase up to any level
or decrease up to Rs. 5 with no change in
the current optimal transportation plan.

Solution Techniques
Mathematical optimization techniques:
1. Exact algorithms: find optimal solutions
2. Heuristics: find “good” solutions, not
necessarily optimal
Simulation models: provide a mechanism to
evaluate specified design alternatives created by
the designer.

Example
Single product
Two plants p1 and p2
• Plant p2 has an annual capacity of 60,000 units.
The two plants have the same production costs.
There are two warehouses w1 and w2 with
identical warehouse handling costs.
There are three markets areas c1,c2 and c3 with
demands of 50,000, 100,000 and 50,000,

The Optimization Model
The problem described earlier can be framed as the
following linear programming problem.
Let
x(p1,w1), x(p1,w2), x(p2,w1) and x(p2,w2) be the flows from
the plants to the warehouses.
x(w1,c1), x(w1,c2), x(w1,c3) be the flows from the
warehouse w1 to customer zones c1, c2 and c3.
x(w2,c1), x(w2,c2), x(w2,c3) be the flows from warehouse
w2 to customer zones c1, c2 and c3
2828SlideSlideDr. R. Shankar, DMS, IIT Delhi (2012-13)
The problem we want to solve is:
min 0x(p1,w1) + 5x(p1,w2) + 4x(p2,w1)
+ 2x(p2,w2) + 3x(w1,c1) + 4x(w1,c2)
+ 5x(w1,c3) + 2x(w2,c1) + 2x(w2,c3)
subject to the following constraints:
x(p2,w1) + x(p2,w2) ≤ 60000
x(p1,w1) + x(p2,w1) = x(w1,c1) + x(w1,c2) + x(w1,c3)
x(p1,w2) + x(p2,w2) = x(w2,c1) + x(w2,c2) + x(w2,c3)
x(w1,c1) + x(w2,c1) = 50000
x(w1,c2) + x(w2,c2) = 100000
x(w1,c3) + x(w2,c3) = 50000
all flows greater than or equal to zero.

New Supply Chain Strategy
OBJECTIVES:
• Reduce inventory and financial risks
• Provide customers with competitive response times.
ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING:
• Determining the optimal location of inventory across the various
stages
• Calculating the optimal quantity of safety stock for each component at
each stage
Hybrid strategy of Push and Pull
• Push Stages produce to stock where the company keeps safety stock
• Pull stages keep no stock at all.
Challenge:
• Identify the location where the strategy switched from Push-based to
Pull-based
• Identify the Push-Pull boundary
Benefits:
• For same lead times, safety stock reduced by 40 to 60%
• Company could cut lead times to customers by 50% and still reduce
safety stocks by 30%
3535SlideSlideDr. R. Shankar, DMS, IIT Delhi (2012-13)
Three Different Product Categories
High variability - low volume products
Low variability - high volume products, and
Low variability - low volume products.
3636SlideSlideDr. R. Shankar, DMS, IIT Delhi (2012-13)
Supply Chain Strategy Different for
the Different Categories
High variability low volume products
• Position them mainly at the primary warehouses
demand from many retail outlets can be aggregated
reducing inventory costs.
Low variability high volume products
• Position close to the retail outlets at the secondary
warehouses
• Ship fully loaded tracks as close as possible to the
customers reducing transportation costs.
Low variability low volume products
• Require more analysis since other characteristics are
important, such as profit margins, etc.

ACHIEVE THE FOLLOWING: • Determining the optimal location of inventory across the various stages • Calculating the optimal quantity of safety stock for each component at each stage Hybrid strategy of Push and Pull • Push Stages produce to stock where the company keeps safety stock • Pull stages keep no stock at all. Challenge: • Identify the location where the strategy switched from Push-based to Pull-based • Identify the Push-Pull boundary Benefits: • For same lead times, safety stock reduced by 40 to 60% • Company could cut lead times to customers by 50% and still reduce safety stocks by 30%

Low variability high volume products • Position close to the retail outlets at the secondary warehouses • Ship fully loaded tracks as close as possible to the customers reducing transportation costs. Low variability low volume products • Require more analysis since other characteristics are important, such as profit margins, etc.
