Propuesta de optimización de las rutas de transporte, en liderser - logística integral

Abstract

The thesis focused on improving the logistical efficiency of Lideser-Logística Integral, a company dedicated to intermediary transport activities. The justification for this study lies in the need to optimize transport routes to reduce operational costs and improve delivery times, key factors for maintaining competitiveness in the logistics sector. Without efficient route planning, the company faced high costs from unnecessary detours and extended wait times, which affected both profitability and customer satisfaction. The analysis and optimization of transport routes were critical for enhancing the fleet's utilization, leading to better resource distribution and a reduction in the carbon footprint. The implementation of techniques such as Solver and the Dijkstra algorithm allowed for modeling more efficient routes, while the use of FlexSim helped validate these solutions through simulations, ensuring their feasibility under real operational conditions. This approach not only solved immediate issues related to route optimization but also laid the groundwork for future improvements in the company’s operational efficiency, establishing a framework that can be applied to other organizations within the logistics sector. The research thus provided practical solutions that contribute to cost reduction and the continuous improvement of logistical processes.
