Résumé : |
This thesis use the criteria of service level in developing a method for determining the appropriate vehicle fleet size, in a situation where there is no opportunity to hire in additional vehicles. A transport system operating with specified levels of priorities is built up to cope with demands classified according to their importance: this importance is seen from the point of wiew of urgency of need, type of products and customer importance. A computer based model is developed to test different priority strategies. By varying vehicle fleet size, different levels of service are achieved and assessed. The results show that a transport system based on various levels of priorities is worth considering when vehicle fleet requirements are under review. |
