Roteirização de veículos com utilização do software logware em uma indústria de laticínios na cidade de Dourados

Abstract

Within the business context, from the distribution logistics processes, it is possible to analyze the current state of companies and seek opportunities to become more competitive within the scenario. The objective of this paper is to show the impact of the logistic sector within a dairy industry located in the city of Dourados - MS, using routing to identify problems and waste, but also to be able to propose improvements for the sector. To perform this work, procedures were adopted such as document research, collection of real data with a questionnaire and consultation in databases of the studied company. In order to compare the current state in which the company is with an improvement state, the Logware® software was used, where the Router® module that uses the Clarke and Wright improvement method to solve the routing problems. With the use of the software, several data tables were generated wich allowed the comparison of the collected data, showing that the current routes are inefficient, having bad routes that consume a lot of resources, compared to the optimal state generated by the software. It is shown that the company can have reductions of up to 43,41% in route costs and a 56,59% decrease in route travel. Finally, it is possible to compare the current state and the optimal state generated by the software and thus propose improvement suggestions for the company and emphasize that the optimization of routes generates cost minimization and this provides greater growth opportunities with the investment of saved values.
