• DISC (Distributed Scheduling) The business objectives of DISC (DIstribution SCheduling) based solutions are to meet service level requirements whilst minimising the resources needed. DISC provides tools for solving large and complex operational distribution planning problems. It is particularly applicable to organisations dealing with short shelf life products, fast moving goods or highly dynamic market price fluctuations, where responsiveness to changing orders and achievement of tight delivery windows are paramount. The tools are equally applicable for primary distribution to Regional Distribution Centres (RDC), composite depots, and secondary distribution from those centres to retail outlets, petrol stations or branches. DISC can be used by senior management, to run different `What if' scenarios, or in an operational mode, by planners. Comments? Rate It [ 0.00 / 0 Votes ]
