Solutions:
- Compare the implications of

- Assist clients to model current
shipment patterns and quantitatively evaluate sites
- Identify the "optimal" location(s)
that minimize transportation costs and improve overall service
efficiency
Benefits:
- Site selection decision support
- For Example, in the adjacent case
study, we rejected the proposed site averting a costly mistake
(est. $28M over a 30 year lease term)
