Chapters 10 11 Routing to Reduce Travel And Workflow and Balance Chapter 10 What is the shortest route or path from a given node in a network to all other nodes? Mapquest ? Deliveries Warehouse picking Critical path in project management More… Chapter 11 Line self-balances at f(x). Slowest worker is green; fastest worker is red. Fastest worker does more of the work. Shortest Path For any problem, the cross arcs will be the same The end arcs will change depending on the locations to visit Another Problem Can you find the shortest path for this? How much is optimization worth? Do we need to optimize routes when there are very few items (1-3) in a pick order? Why? Do we need to optimize routes when there are very many items (i.e. you need to visit almost every aisle multiple times) in a pick order? Why? Where is Optimal Routing most Beneficial? Warehouses with many items, which are slow moving Warehouses with orders of moderate size Examples Hardware distribution centers Building supply warehouses Aftermarket auto parts to dealerships Workflow Balance Learning Objectives Identify the steps to implementing a bucket brigade to balance workload Identify the advantages of bucket brigades over other workload balancing policies Self Organized Teams Requires no central planning or higher authority. It is adaptive, i.e. spontaneously adjusts to changes in the environment Bucket Brigades in Action Sample Flow Line Faster worker Slower worker Figure 11.3 Eventual Partition of Work Content Explanation for No time windows: Can be delivered to their mailboxes Pickup delivery done only during office hrs Constraints Library should be 1st stop Library should be last stop Used optimization software OPL Studio Total distance traversed = Used optimization software OPL Studio Total distance traversed = 340.06 units Warehouse and Distribution Science Routing Learning Objectives Understand the complexities of implementing pick routing Explain why straight line and serpentine pa
