Multi-site, multi flow transport planning optimisation at
SK Cartomills
25 September 15h00
SK Cartomills, a subsidiary of the Smurfit Kappa Group, world leader in board packaging and products, operates 4 production and converting sites throughout Belgium. Due to production specialization and production constraints, each site is delivering its production throughout Benelux and France. Through this project, SK Cartomills has deployed a solution enabling it to significantly reduce its transport costs by optimizing the sequencing of transport orders from each site and grouping orders from different sites together. This solution is based on a central organization with a global view on the flows from all the sites but gives each site a certain degree of freedom to adapt the global plan. Both client deliveries and internal flows are taken into account and a pre-optimization of load volumes of all goods for a client is realized. Finally, the cost optimization takes into account the possibility for SK Cartomills’ transport firms to find, in certain cases, return loads from other clients.
