Title
Adaptation of the multi-layer allocation problem for warehouse layout optimization: A case study
Abstract
This paper deals with the implementation of the mathematical model for the Products Allocation Problem in a multi-layer warehouse. The model has been applied to identify the optimal warehouse configuration for a company operating in the sector of production and distribution of sports equipment and sportswear, with the main goal of minimizing the material handling costs. Cost analysis have been carried out in order to evaluate the cost saving that could be obtained implementing the new layout configuration. Different scenarios have been considered to evaluate the consistency of the obtained solution. Numerical cost results show a good quality solution.
