Project Goals

Analyzing cost structure of global logistics system, developing mathematical model for total logistics and manufacturing cost, tradeing-off extra capacity and flexibility to handle these uncertainties in global environment and determining the best operation strategy under different situations.

Project Progress

Analyzing different freight pricing structure of different transportation modes and developing a model for global shipping cost
