Solutions:
- Compare the implications of transportation cost on multiple site scenarios using GIS routing analysis
- Assist clients to model current shipment patterns and quantitatively evaluate sites
- Identify the "optimal" location(s) that minimize transportation costs and improve overall service efficiency
Benefits:
- Site selection decision support
- For Example, in the adjacent case study, we rejected the proposed site averting a costly mistake (est. $28M over a 30 year lease term)
