  2. OUTLINE • Motivation • Problem Definition • The MILP Mathematical Model • Example • Conclusions

  3. MOTIVATION • In the current context of a global and very competitive economy, multipleproduction and distribution activities must be properly coordinated in order to satisfy strict market requirements at the minimum cost. • From the operational perspective, both problems have been traditionally faced separately and independently from any Supply Chain Environment. • The proper synchronization of these complex systems remains as an open and challenging area for research.

  4. MOTIVATION VEHICLE ROUTING AND SCHEDULING PROBLEMS

  5. Manufacturing plant Distribution center Retailer/Customer Product flow Cross-docking site MOTIVATION ALTERNATIVE DISTRIBUTION NETWORK DESIGN OPTIONS a) Manufacturer storage and direct shipping b) Distributor storage and shipping via central distribution centre c) Cross-docking d) Hybrid infrastructure

  6. MOTIVATION • In multi-site supply chains, products are usually manufactured in one or more factories, moved to warehouses for intermediate storage, and subsequently shipped to retailers or final consumers.

  7. MOTIVATION The effective operation of complex production and distribution networks involves the management of activities performed in multiple factories, distribution centers (DCs), retailers and end users, which are usually geographical distributed in many different cities, countries and/or continents. • MILP-based Framework Approach to the Integrated Operational Planning of Multi-Echelon Multiproduct Production and Transportation Networks in Supply Chains

  8. PROBLEM DEFINITION • The short-term operational planning of multi-echelon production and distribution networks comprises: • Pure” source nodes (IS), usually manufacturing plants, where several types of products are made. In these locations, vehicles carry out only pickup operations, • Mixed nodes (IM), like DCs, where visiting vehicles can accomplish pickup and/or unloading operations, • Destination nodes (ID), like consumer zones, where visiting trucks just perform delivery operations.

  10. INTEGRATED FRAMEWORK • Novel MILP-based continuous time formulation • It provides a very detailed set of coordinated production and distribution schedules.

  11. MODEL DECISIONS • Batches to be Produced • Batch to Unit Assignment • Batch Sequencing and Timing • Customer to Vehicle Assignment • Vehicle Routing and Timing • Batch to Vehicle Assignment • Inventory to Vehicle Assignment

  12. PROBLEM GOAL • The problem goal is to meet all products demands minimizing: • The Total ProductionCost • The Total TransportationCost • Production costs include: • Setup costs, • Fixed and variable production cost • Transportation costs include: • Fixed expenses incurred by used vehicles, • Distance-based variable costs, mainly fuel costs.

  17. ALTERNATIVE SCENARIOS All the examples were solved to global optimality with a modest computational effort using GAMS 23.5.2 with solver CPLEX 12 in a PC Core 4 Quad (8 threads).

  18. CONCLUSIONS • An integrated MILP-based framework for production and distribution scheduling in supply chains has been proposed. • The formulation developed can be applied to solve complex problems in a reasonable computational time. • Each solution provides a very detailed set of coordinated production and distribution schedules to meet all products demands at minimum total production and transportation cost.
