FAQ
Can I purchase only the Network Design category?
No, Log-hub’s Supply Chain Apps are offered as a complete portfolio. The strength of our platform lies in its integrated ecosystem — giving you access not only to Network Design, but also to complementary apps for transport optimization, inventory planning, and more. This ensures you have all the tools needed to approach supply chain challenges holistically, without limitations.
How can I improve performance when working with large datasets?
Use the latitude/longitude versions of geographic fields to avoid repeated geocoding during calculations. Ensure that your Excel environment is optimized for large datasets.
How does the Network Design application determine the optimal number and location of warehouses?
The application uses mathematical optimization based on the Facility Location Problem and its extensions. It evaluates various combinations of warehouse numbers and locations while minimizing total costs (e.g., fixed warehouse costs, transportation costs) and satisfying constraints such as capacity limits and service levels. This allows it to suggest the most cost-effective and operationally efficient network configuration.
What distance is calculated, beeline or real road distance in Center of Gravity app?
We are calculating the analysis on a beeline distance.
How do I ensure consistent results across multiple analyses?
Use the “Save Scenario” toggle to store your parameter settings. This feature allows you to replicate the analysis with updated data without reconfiguration.
