Contemporary supply chains must respond flexibly to changes in market demand, and the disappearance of some trends and the emergence of new ones is very dynamic. The consequence is the need to reorganize the supply chain: to adjust to changes in the demand for specific components or raw materials. Without packing planning algorithms, which can quickly process a huge amount of data, it is practically impossible.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A flexible supply chain is a prerequisite for efficient monitoring of inventory levels and shifting goods among distribution centres, warehouses and stores. Hau L. Lee, a professor at Stanford University, believes that organisations with well-designed supply chains are able to accommodate market changes even before they happen<\/strong>1<\/sup>. Changing supply sources, relocating factories or production outsourcing should be applied proactively, not reactively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You cannot have a flexible supply chain without efficient packing <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The smooth operation of the supply chain depends on many factors, two of which are of key importance: transport and warehousing<\/strong>. They are the bloodstream that connects manufacturers, suppliers and customers. The efficient flow of raw materials, components and finished goods is a constant movement of cargo between different storage and transport spaces. The better the space is used, the lower the transport and storage costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designing the flow of cargo in the supply chain requires considering factors, including, but not limited to :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
