Storage allocation optimization model in a Colombian company
Abstract Storage allocation in the warehouse consists in deciding the corresponding areas in which the products must be allocated. It can be made using different techniques to establish a specific position for the products. Some applications provide solutions and evaluate results independently, allowing the identification of its potential in warehouses. This paper presents the application of a storage allocation model in a food company considering several products in a defined time horizon. The algorithm identifies the operation area and the corresponding spaces that are required for the allocation of the products, aimed to reduce holding and material handling costs. As a result, the application of the algorithm produces a complete product allocation in each period and improves cost efficiency in the warehouse.
