Research on the Methods of Logistics Systems Planning in Distribution Center

Abstract:

The internal logistics system planning in distribution center includes: processes planning; functional area layout planning; facilities and equipment selection configuration; cargo storage planning. In recent years, China has the unprecedented scale of logistics park construction. In order to build a scientific and rational logistics infrastructure, it has a very practical value to research the theory and method of internal logistics system planning in distribution center. From the point of reality, this paper studies the processes planning, functional area layout planning, facilities and equipment selection configuration and cargo storage planning. Using the planning methods and models presented in this paper we can design processes, quantitatively plan facilities in distribution, improve operational efficiency and reduce operating costs in distribution center.
