Under these conditions, logistics network planning becomes an important issue for supply chain management in recent years. Warehouse consolidation is the long-run strategy in supply chain management. Nevertheless, cost factors that must be considered at the time of logistics network planning are numerous and there is a trade off relationship among the various cost factors. Therefore the purpose of this essay is to demonstrate the ideal ratio between warehouses and distribution centers while maximizing the optimal distribution network in order to meet customers’ needs. This essay focuses on a business named “A Company” which is a Taiwan based company in Mainland China. By utilizing this company as a real case study, this essay will weigh relevant costs and reorganize the quantity of their warehouses as well as the distribution of their products in its current distribution network. The best distribution network for the company will also be suggested to reduce the total logistics cost. After assessing the real data, the number of warehouses encompassed in the best distribution network is reduced from seven to three. Under the best distribution network, the locations of the warehouses are in the southwest, northeast, and northwest. The amount of cost savings pursuant to implementing the warehouse reduction would be RMB 826,115 dollars per month and about RMB 10 million dollars per year. 蔣明晃 2006 學位論文 ; thesis 53 zh-TW |
