Can you guys help me with this? Thank you! Here's the question: Compared to the CONSTRAINT model, how has the network changed? How do you plan to add contingency to your network? Please answer this thoroughly Here's the what-if scenario: Assume that the LA warehouse becomes temporarily or even indefinitely disabled since facing a large-scale labor disruption. Re-optimize the network considering this new constraint. Here's the scenario comparison analysis:  Scenario Constraint Scenario vs What-if Scenario Summary The Constraint Scenario exhibits a higher total cost of $7,424,575.45 compared to the What-if Scenario's total cost of $6,611,905.60, signifying a difference of approximately $812,669.85, which indicates a more expensive operation in the Constraint Scenario. The average service time is slightly higher in the Constraint Scenario (0.72 days vs. 0.70 days), suggesting that the What-if Scenario provides a marginally quicker service. Moreover, the average end-to-end service time…
Can you guys help me with this? Thank you! Here's the question: Compared to the CONSTRAINT model, how has the network changed? How do you plan to add contingency to your network? Please answer this throughly Here's the what-if scenario: Assume that Dallas plant has lost power. It cannot serve the DCs anymore and has to remain locked indefinitely. Re-optimize the network considering this new constraint. Here's the scenario comparison analysis:  Scenario Constraint Scenario vs What-if Scenario Summary In comparing the Constraint Scenario to the What-if Scenario, a few key differences highlight the efficiencies evident in the supply chain. Firstly, the total cost in the Constraint Scenario is lower at $7,424,575.45, while the What-if Scenario incurs a total cost of $7,486,369.12, resulting in a cost delta of $61,793.67. Additionally, although both scenarios exhibit the same average service time of 0.72 days, the What-if Scenario has a more favorable average end-to-end service time of 2.41…
