Transport Implementation Model in Supply Chains

The paper presents a general approach to modelling of transport implementation in supply chains. Supply chain accounts intermediate links in the distribution of goods. Supply chain includes all activities associated with the flow of goods, ranging from sourcing of basic raw materials and ending with the sale to the ultimate purchaser of the final product and dispose of what this product is after use. At every stage movement may appear phrases, or materials rejected by the next company in the chain or wastes that require disposal. The problem is to determine the optimal number of logistics facilities and assigning clients to them, in such a way that the costs of servicing the area are minimal, and at the same time were met with one hand, customer requirements, on the other hand, the opportunities for technical and economic logistics service providers. For that problem it is necessary to construct appropriate model of supply chains transport organization. Constructing a model of transport organization of supply chains is a difficult and complex decision-making process. This is mainly due to the diversity of needs of individual participants of the supply chain. Due to technical and organizational conditions transport designing should be adapted to the expectations of users of transport services and taking into account potential logistics operators. This paper presents a general approach to optimize the supply chain structure.
