8. 8 Problem Definition Florida

9. 9 Problem Definition 36% 26% 13% 8% 11% 6% LTL: Greatest Opportunity for Savings

10. 10 Problem Definition Focus on Consolidation of LTL shipments to Florida Eliminated Frozen and Chilled shipments from the Optimization model Included most FTL shipments by breaking them down

16. 16 Supplier Locations (LTL Florida) (Data Aggregation by 3-Digit Zip Code)

17. 17 To Consolidate LTL Shipments into FTL Shipper XYZ Company Shipper CP FTL LTL Present Situation Proposed Solution LTL

18. 18 Proposed 2-Step Model Step 1: Set Covering Model (SCM) Step 2: Network Design Model (NDM) To Generate Potential Consolidation Point Candidates To Determine which Consolidation Points to Open/ Close

19. 19 Step 1: Set Covering Model (SCM) Maximize sum(i in Suppliers) y[i] s.t {sum(i in Suppliers) x[i] <= 30; forall(i in Suppliers) y[i] <= (sum(j in Suppliers) Matrix[i,j]*x[j]) Integer Programming Model Model will decide 30 Potential Consolidation Points within 300 mile Radius from Suppliers. To Maximize the Number of Suppliers which can be Covered by the CPs To Generate at most 30 Potential CP locations To Ensure that CPs are within 300 mile radius from Suppliers

20. 20 SCM Results: 30 Consolidation Points Next Step: CP Candidates will be fed into the Network Design Model (NDM)

21. 21 Step 2: Network Design Model (NDM) Model Objectives : To Decide which Consolidation Points to open or close To Determine whether Suppliers should Ship Direct to the company To Assign Suppliers to Consolidation Points To Open or Close? To Open or Close? To Open or Close? To Open or Close To Open or Close? To Open or Close? To Open or Close?

22. 22 Objective : To Minimize Total Transportation Costs (Direct shipments + Shipments via opened CP) XYZ Company Shipper Direct LTL Shipment Constraint I: If Supplier is not a Candidate CP We either serve this 3 Digit zip via LTL shipments to the destination or via a consolidation point CP LTL Shipment

23. 23 Step 2: Network Design Model (NDM) Constraint II: If Supplier is a Candidate CP Case 1: If NOT OPEN We send LTL direct or via a designated CP CP XYZ Company XYZ Company LTL Case 1 CP FTL

24. 24 Step 2: Network Design Model (NDM) CP XYZ Company XYZ Company Case 2 FTL Constraint II: If Supplier is a Candidate CP Case 2: If OPEN We consolidate at CP and send FTL direct

25. 25 Step 2: Network Design Model (NDM) Constraint III: Load Factor of 0.8 Total Inflow into CP < = [ 0.8 * Total Truckloads ] CP 0.8 * Constraint IV: Frequency Minimum Truckloads going through an Open CP per year > = 52 LTL ie at least 1 truckload per week
