Logistics Optimisation
Optimising the global supply chain is a strategic concern for many of today's companies, due to a wide range of factors: the globalisation of trading, the diversification of sources of procurement, the specialisation of manufacturing sites, the transfer of flows between plants, shortening delivery times, etc.
Our solutions, that are frequently designed for industrial and supply chain managers, provide optimal results for the following needs:
- location and sizing of production plants
- location of products, warehouses, and hubs
- optimising the flow of goods between supplier, factory, warehouse and customer
- optimising fleet sizes for lorries, aircraft, trains, cars, ships, etc.
- assigning warehouses to specific catchment areas
- Where should stocks etc be located?
- optimising a company's transportation plan
- management of return flows, etc.
In particular, Eurodecision has developed two software components that provide modelling and global optimisation of supply chain logistics:
- LP-SupplyChain optimises the location and sizing of enterprise supply chain flows in order to provide effective solutions for both strategic and tactical decision making
- LP-TransportationPlanner optimises transport planning (supply, distribution, express) while taking into account constraints such as quality of service and utilisation of sites (opening times, hub capacities, etc.)
Many companies have benefited from Eurodecision's expertise in supply chain optimisation, including Air Liquide, Airbus, AntarGaz, Brink's, Decathlon, Faurecia, GEFCO, Italcementi Group, La Poste, The French Ministry of Defense, Lactalis, Renault, SERNAM, Total, and TotalGaz

Besides providing tools for end-users, Eurodecision uses its supply chain optimisation tools to also carry out consulting studies.
