Prescriptive Route Optimization for a Sustainable Fashion Logistics Firm
Overview
What this challenge is about.
Your team must develop a decision-support tool that recommends optimal delivery routes for EcoThreads' fleet. You'll need to model the logistics network, incorporate constraints like vehicle capacity and time windows, and optimize for multiple objectives: minimize total distance, minimize CO2 emissions, and maximize on-time deliveries. Success is a working prototype that demonstrates trade-offs and provides actionable routes for a sample day.
