| Abstract | The coordination of logistics activities in a supply chain has recently received a lot of attention in operationsmanagement research. In a typical supply chain, finished products are produced and either shipped to be temporarystorage or arrived directly on time to the customers. To achieve optimal operational performance, the coordinationand integration of production, delivery, and storage is an important consideration. The recent study consideredcustomer storage cost with fixed transportation cost or fixed batch size, which is unrealistic. In this thesis, we studythe coordinate of batching and scheduling activities, which includes the coordination of batching of products inbatches after the production stage, the coordination of scheduling, customer(s) orders which require the deliveryfrom the supplier, and the storage of products at the customer(s). This study focus on single-supplier/multi-customerscenario and single-supplier/multi-transporter scenario. For the first scenario with multi-customer, two modelsillustrate the transferring of batches to the customer. Where in the first model, we considered a singlesupplier/ multicustomerwith one capacitated transporter available to serve the customers without the vehicle routingconsideration. Then, in the second model, we considered a single-supplier/multi-customer with multi-transportavailable to serve the customers. In this case different assumption is proposed and compared in the last chapter.Concerning the second scenario, we studied the case of single-supplier with multi-transporter available to serve asingle customer. In this scenario, models with homogeneous and heterogeneous vehicles are studied. The totalsystem cost is calculated by summing the total delivery and storage cost for different customers and transporters inthe system. The number of products by batch is unequal and they are limited only by the capacity of the transporterused. The storage cost of the customers depends on the customer destination, the distance between the supplierand their customers depends on the customer location, which is the case of the delivery cost also which depends onthe customer¿s location. In the case of the multi-transporters, the delivery cost depends on the transporter used.In each model, we present the following: solution procedures to solve each model, many numerical examples tosupport mathematical findings and to clarify the problem under study, and performance comparisons amongdifferent findings. The future extension of this research may involve considering setup time and cost constraints inthe production stage, the vehicle routing consideration with inventory in the multi-customer case. |
