Distribution Network Design

Warehouse location decisions compound for years. The right network design balances transportation cost, delivery speed, inventory investment and labor availability — and getting it wrong is expensive to unwind once leases are signed.

What Gets Modeled

Your actual customer and order data against the market landscape: how many facilities you need, where they should be, what each node’s service radius looks like, and how transportation costs shift as the network changes shape.

How It Runs

This isn’t a generic “add a West Coast node” recommendation. Your specific order concentration, growth markets, and service-level commitments drive where the math actually points — sometimes that’s exactly where you’d expect, sometimes it isn’t.

What You Get Back

A network design with the tradeoffs made explicit: what each additional node costs, what it saves in transit time and freight, and what volume threshold makes it worth adding. Decisions get made with the full picture, not a hunch.
