Abstract

The paper presents a description of modelling the supply chain including disturbances by using simulation software. In order to make the best representation of reality, the route, the lorry’s speed and various types of disturbances are taken into account. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate how disturbances can be modeled and to present benefits of using the simulation programs to plan a route and time of transport.
