Optimized inter-warehouse transportation resulted in transportation cost reduction
Continental Barum wanted to minimize the inter-warehouse transportation required to collect all ordered items of a particular order dispatching. We developed a new tire distribution algorithm and a web-based application that suggests where to store the produced items to minimize the future need for inter-warehouse transportation. More orders can be dispatched from a single warehouse directly, limiting the inter-warehouse transit to a minimum. Inter-warehouse transportation costs have decreased.
