4 3.1 Why Network Planning? Find the right balance between inventory, transportation and manufacturing costs, Match supply and demand under uncertainty by positioning and managing inventory effectively, Utilize resources effectively by sourcing products from the most appropriate manufacturing facility

9 Objective and Trade-Offs Objective: Design or reconfigure the logistics network in order to minimize annual system-wide cost subject to a variety of service level requirements Trade-Offs: Increasing the number of warehouses yields increasing • inventory costs. • overhead • setup costs • inbound costs reducing outbound costs improving service level Data? Costs?
