Business solutions often involve optimization problems to find the optimal sequences, combinations, assignments, and packing, and so on, in various business areas, such as manufacturing, distribution, and the public sector.
Optimization Model building is one of the key focus area of VCS. Examples of the optimization problems we are tackling include vehicle routing, logistics network design, warehouse location planning, and various scheduling problems in the cement & chemical industry.
We understand the unique requirements companies have to improve their specific decision. VCS can build customized model to support such decisions.
Some of the decisions where VCS can build a mathematical model to get the optimal output are
- Which markets should cover to maximize profits and keep the expenses down?
- What price change should I accept so that my bottom-lime is improved?
- Should I have more warehouses to improve service level? How many? Where?
- Should I re-organize my warehouse network to improve service level and reduce cost at the same time?
- Which product should I manufacture at my own plant, loan license or third party manufacturers? Which plant?
- How much to produce at each plant to maximize company’s profit?
- Should I take a shutdown now or later? What saves more money for the company?
- Where should I set up my new production unit?
- How many vehicles do I need for transportation to minimize cost and achieve the target customer service level?
- Which plant should supply to which micro market to maximize profit?
- Where should I invest to maximize returns during the next 10 years? Given individual investment profile
- In which month, I would have excess stock? When should I export? How much? From which Plant?
- How much stock should I carry to meet 95% service level?
- How many resources do I need to finish the work in time?
- When should I procure, how much and at which plant to minimize total cost of ownership?

As supply chains get longer and as fuel costs, capacity and security concerns complicate transportation, the cost of goods produced is on the rise. Distribution service providers should have an agile enterprise to respond to these challenges. An agile enterprise can respond more effectively to customer and market changes.
