| dc.description.abstract | Planning exporting and importing and inland movement is a challenging and timeconsuming logistics decision, especially for businesses that have a constant movement
flow of cargo. In this day and age, multimodal transportation (MTP) is a popular
method to enhance inland movement and reduce transportation costs. This thesis
considers the combination of 2 means of transportation which are container tractor and
barge and aims to define the optimal routes for each mode. The location network
spread from the domestic factory, inland container depot, seaport, and foreign
warehouse. In addition, the model also takes into account the impact of allocation
control, which is a big penalty if businesses fail to meet. The results of this model are
then compared to the current practice of Logitech to prove the effectiveness of the
proposed model. | en_US |
