Centre of Gravity study

In this business case we supported an international B2C and B2B electronic wholesaler to find their optimum warehouse and delivery solution by performing a Centre of Gravity study. For this study we started with gathering all relevant data on inbound, outbound, location cost and company growth strategy. For the Centre of Gravity analysis we use a tool in which the data can be transformed into different scenario’s from current state to optimum cost and performance solutions.

The Centre of Gravity study resulted in the company decision to keep current location, but made them aware of the service and cost gaps in their current set-up. As a result the company launched an initiative to push their current transport providers to find solutions for their remote, but important customers and feed into integrator local delivery hubs.
