Million Dollar Logistic Decisions Using Simulation

Download www.informs-sim.org

This paper presents the development of a flexible simulation model of the rail operations at the Tropicana facility in Bradenton, Florida. The complexity of the process and system interaction required a dynamic simulation model to be developed. The model describes the loading, staging, travel, and unloading of rail cars at the Tropicana facility and two distribution centers. The model output and sensitivity analysis enabled management to optimize rail car availability and crew sizing.
