MULTI-STAGE TRANSPORTATION CONSOLIDATION ANALYSIS USING DYNAMIC SIMULATION

One strategy that can offer substantial transportation performance improvement is freight consolidation. Freight consolidation refers to the practice of aggregating customer orders over space and/or time until a specified minimum total shipment weight/volume is accumulated and/or a maximum holding time for the oldest customer order is reached. The aggregated customer orders are then shipped together.
