Manufactured Products

The objective of this study was to determine the optimal allocation of shipments (least cost) of two manufactured products between depots and places of consumption. In this study, the least-cost method was used in solving the transportation algorithm using Tora 2.0 version software. The study was necessary because of the high operating costs associated with physical distribution when deliveries are not properly planned and considered with reference to alternative strategies. In contrast, significant savings can be achieved by using techniques available for determining the cheapest methods of transporting goods from several origins to several destinations. Cost minimisation is a very useful approach to the solution of transportation problems.

Inherent Property

This paper describes how physical distribution management systems have the inherent property of improving top management’s control of performance and costs in typical business organizations. It suggests some of the shortcomings of segmented types of control and of incentives related to segmental controls; it explains how the introduction of an integrative principle in management structure can correct these shortcomings, while relieving top management of certain tasks which can be delegated, and in some instances even computerized.
