Mewong Exercise TASK 2: Transport and Storage WFP Logistics, We Deliver

Lesson Objectives 1 2 By the end of this lesson, you will be able to: Analyse needs and calculate the required storage structures in 2 logistics hub in Mewong 2 Develop a basic road transport plan from the capital to 2 logistics hub in Mewong

Mewong Exercise Task 2: Overview The response effort has started… You have been deployed in Nakhon and you are the Logistics officer. 2 basic government offices are already set in Nakohn and Negeri but will have to install Mobile Storage Units (MSUs) to augment the capacity. You just received the details of the operation. Nakhon and Negeri have been choosen as logistics hub locations where the humanitarian cargo will transit. You are tasked with the the dimensioning of the storage and the planning of the transport.   Timing Presentation exercise : 10 min Exercise: 110 min Debriefing: 60 min Handout The hand-outs 4 and 7 contain all the information you need for this exercise.

Mewong Exercise Task 2: Scenario details Please refer to the handout 6 (Mewong exercise – task 2 – Transport and storage) and, considering the Supply chain coordination, transport and warehousing arrangements. Your objectives are: Given the cargo to be received, estimate the storage capacity needed in Nakhon (NK) and in Negeri (NG). Plan the transport of tents, family kits and a two weeks stock of rice to be prepositioned and readied for the first round of distributions in Nakhon (NK) and in Negeri (NG).  

Mewong Exercise Task 2: Scenario details  Your task is to answer those questions: How many tents and family kits will you store in NK and NG? What is the number of MSU’s required for storage at NK and NG? Plan the transport for all supplies: From Meo to Nakhon, using 50 x 40MT trucks From Nakhon to Negeri, using 60 x 10 MT trucks

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 1 Solution Inputs from Handout 4 To define the dimensions of the storage one has to first define how the first 5000 tents and the first 10,000 kits should be split between NK and NG: DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Conclusion: Out of the 5000 tents, 2,350 will go to NK while 2650 tents will go to NG Out of the 10,000 family kits, 4,550 will go to NK while 5450 family kits will go to NG.

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 2 Solution Input from Handout 4 To calculate the space needed for the Tents (t) and the Kits (k), we consider the number of items and multiply them by the given volumes (V): In NK: V(t) = 2,350 x 0.18 = 423 cbm and V(k) = 4,550 x 0.12 = 546 cbm In NG: V(t) = 2,650 x 0.18 = 477 cbm and V(k) = 5,450 x 0.12 = 654 cbm   To calculate the space needed for the rice (r), we consider the number of beneficiaries per region, the weight of the daily ration per person (600gr = 0.6Kg), the number of days the rations must be stored for (0.5 month = 15 days) and the volume of the rice when stored in bags (1 MT = 1.5 cbm). Remember that Kg should be converted in MT. In NK: V(r) = (450,000 x 15 x 0.6)/1000 x 0.5 = 4,050 (MT) x 1.5 = 6,075 cbm In NG: V(r) = (350,000 x 15 x 0.6)/1000 x 0.5 = 3,150 (MT) x 1.5 = 4,725 cbm DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 2 Solution To recap:   Storage needs are therefore: In NK, we need 15 MSUs In NG, we need 13 MSUs (All MSUs are standard in dimensions: 24 m x 10 m) DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 3 Solution Travel times and dispatch plan overview: The transport will be planned in 2 legs. Leg 1: From Meo to NK, taking 3 days return trips, 50 trucks (40 MT maximum capacity each) will transport the tents allocated to NK and NG and the rice allocated to NK and NG. The family kits (considered delivered in NK) will be stored in NK. The family kits allocated to NG will be transported to NG by 10 MT trucks. Leg 2: In NK, the rice and the tents to NG will be transshipped onto 10 Mt trucks. The cargo to NG will be consolidated with the family kits. All cargo to NG, will be transported by 60 trucks (10 MT capacity each) from NK to NG. Trucks will complete every rotation to NG in one day (return trips). DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 3 Solution Data calculated in Question 2 – Total cargo to NK: V (tents to NK) = 423 cbm V (tents to NG) = 477 cbm V (kits to NK) = 546 cbm V (kits to NG) = 654 cbm W (rice to NK) = 4,050 MT W (rice to NG) = 3,150 MT DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Inputs from Handout 4 According to the given figures above (Handout 4) the trucking fleet can be calculated as follow:

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 3 Solution Leg 1 Plan – From Meo to Nakhon: The total cargo (40 MT trucks) from Meo to NK (Transport leg 1) is: Tents (NK+NG) + Rice (NK+NG) = (423 cbm + 477 cbm = 900 cbm) + (4,050 MT + 3,150 MT = 7200 MT) Day 1: Number of truck for tents = 900 / 120 = 7.5 Number of trucks for rice = 50 – 7.5 = 42.5 7 trucks will leave with tents only (7 x 120 cbm = 840 cbm) while 42 trucks will leave with rice only (42 x 40 MT = 1680 MT). 1 truck will leave with both tents and rice.   Shared cargo calculation: Half a load of rice is 20 MT, which uses only 20 x 1.5 = 30 cbm (leaving 90 cbm for tents) Half a volume of tents is 60 cbm, which weights (60 / 0.18) x 54 /1000 = 18 MT Total weight of the mixed cargo = 20 +18 = 38 MT Total volume of the mixed cargo = 30 + 60 = 90 MT Total volume of tents transported on day 1 = 840 cbm + 60 cbm = 900 cbm Balance of tents to be transported to NK = 0 Total weight of rice transported on day 1 = 1680 MT + 20 MT = 1700 MT Balance of rice to be transported to NK = 7200 – 1700 = 5500 MT DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 3 Solution Leg 1 Plan – From Meo to Nakhon: Day 4 (3 days after day 1): 50 trucks leave with 40 MT of rice Total weight transported on day 4 = 2000 MT Balance of rice to be transported to NK = 5500 – 2000 = 3500 MT   Day 7 (3 days after day 4): Total weight transported on day 7 = 2000 MT Balance of rice to be transported to NK = 3500 – 2000 = 1500 MT Day 10 (3 days after day 7): Number of trucks needed to complete the transport of rice to NK = 1500 / 40 = 37.5 = 38 trucks DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Leg 1 – Meo to NK - Recap table:

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 3 Solution Data calculated in Question 2 – Total cargo to NG: V (tents to NG) = 477 cbm V (kits to NG) = 654 cbm W (rice to NG) = 3,150 MT DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK According to the given figures above (Handout 4) the trucking fleet can be calculated as previously:

DO NOT PRINT IN WORKBOOK Mewong Exercise Task 2: Question 3 Solution Leg 2 Plan – From Nakhon to Negeri: The total cargo (10 MT trucks) from NK to NG (Transport leg 2) is: Tents NG + Family kits NG + Rice NG = 477 cbm + 654 cbm + 3150 MT Note: The transport from NK to NG only starts on day 3 as the cargo from Meo only arrives in NK on Day 2.
