Maritime Spare Parts Management: Current State-of-the-Art

Every company in the logistics sector targets on having an efficient network, which guarantees on time deliveries with a reasonable cost. As the companies expanded and now offer worldwide coverage their networks became extensive and rather complex. The old manual methods of network optimization must now be changed with modern ones, which fully utilize the vast computational capabilities of the modern computers. In the big networks we have to deal we cannot use exhaustive algorithms to find a solution as it would take a massive amount of time to produce results. The effectiveness of a network is becoming more crucial for a company day by day.

As a test case we used Golden Cargo Logistics, one of the leading companies in ships spare parts supply. The network of the company has been researched in order for its specific attributes to be identified and to give us an insight of how we should deal with them. The network has worldwide coverage and is responsible for the distribution of a considerable amount of spare parts. This thesis tries to provide a solution by using a different than the usual methods, the method of simulated annealing. The history of the method is presented together with some problems it has been used for. The implementation of the method presents different difficulties in every problem. Then we used the method to optimize a network according to the company’s operational schedule. It is a smaller than the original network will be but this fact allowed us to further research different solutions in a limited amount of time. The program that was created produces a complete plan of how the packages of the company should be routed. Finally, the results of the implementation of the method are presented.

Ship Spare Parts Network Optimization: the case of Golden Cargo

The construction material store (CMS) industry in Thailand is highly competitive, boasting 16,000 stores and experiencing rapid growth (GSB Research). Despite this, back-office management, such as delivery and appointment scheduling, struggles to keep up with the increasing customer demand. The present study aims to develop an operational model for efficient delivery planning in a CMS. The model accurately calculates the minimum delivery costs while adhering to certain constraints. This research employs a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) mathematical model specifically designed for planning routes and organizing products for delivery. In this study, the CMS delivers products to customers through a third-party trucking company, and a practical delivery plan is developed based on existing conditions and limitations. The delivery plan ensures that products are supplied to customers using appropriate vehicles for the product type, while staying within truckload capacities. The CMS operates by outsourcing vehicles of various sizes, and different products are selected for delivery. All products are available for shipment to customers at any given time. The improved delivery planning considers routing, product selection for trucks, capacity limitations, customer demand, and distance management. Certain limitations of the model, such as routing policy, truck capacity, and product weight, are addressed. The results demonstrate that implementing this model can decrease planning time by up to 80%, reduce total costs by up to 20%, lower delivery distances by up to 19%, and enhance customer satisfaction.
