摘要：Location Routing Inventory Problem with Transhipment (LRIP-T) is a collaboration of the three components in the supply chain which are location-allocation; vehicle routing and inventory management problems that allow transhipment process, in a way that the total system cost and the total operational time are minimized. This study is to determine a set of customer points to act as the transhipment point as and when it is necessary, based on the surplus quantities it has, the quantities to ship to the needing customers and the sequence in which customers are replenished by homogeneous fleet of vehicles. The transhipment point is selected from the existing customers using p-center. The performance of the selection is evaluated using a set of benchmark data and a real life data. For the real life data, sensitivity analysis based on the number of distribution centres and size of lorries are presented. Results show important savings achieved when compared to the existing model in solving the supply chain problem.
