ABSTRACT
Supply chain coordination and planning safeguards the competitiveness of an organization. Essential drivers such as Inventory, Transportation, Facilities, and Information identify essential aspects to balance cost and efficiency. In the construction industry, transportation plans and storage layouts must be scientifically arranged to avoid undesirable delays in the construction schedule. Thus, designing an optimal logistics system ensures efficiency and effectiveness of construction resources. The objective of the study is to get the minimum delivery cost to supply two different types of wires to different projects based on the carrying capacity, cost of the supplies, storage cost, and transportation cost of different suppliers. Two approaches are utilized to verify the objective function of the study. Linear programming and Anylogistix software are used to compute the optimal delivery cost of the subject construction company. Both methodologies emphasized that determining the highest cost driver will effectively lower the delivery charges which will essentially reduce the overall construction rates.
