“…Our modeling of transportation costs is similar to the one in these studies (i.e., Mendoza and Ventura, 2008;Rieksts and Ventura, 2008;Rieksts and Ventura, 2010). Mainly, we assume that the TL carrier charges a fixed shipping price per truck whether it is fully or partially loaded, and the LTL carrier charges a constant price for each unit shipped.…”

“…In some recent studies, a combination of TL and LTL shipments is modeled. See, for example, Mendoza and Ventura (2008), Rieksts and Ventura (2008), Rieksts and Ventura (2010). These three studies allow the utilization of a TL carrier and an LTL carrier simultaneously for the shipment of the replenishment quantity.…”

“…While many of the papers in this area consider the problem in a single echelon setting (e.g., Aucamp, 1982;Lee, 1986;Tersine and Barman, 1994;Shinn et al, 1996;Burwell et al, 1997;Hwang et al, 1990;Jaruphongsa et al, 2005;Mendoza and Ventura, 2008;Rieksts and Ventura, 2008;Toptal, 2009), relatively recent papers model and solve the replenishment problems of multiple echelons under transportation considerations (see Hoque and Goyal, 2000;Çetinkaya and Lee, 2002;Chan et al, 2002;Toptal et al, 2003;Toptal and Çetinkaya, 2006;Rieksts and Ventura, 2010).…”

a b s t r a c tFreight transportation is a major component of logistical operations. Due to the increase in global trade, fierce competition among shippers and raising concerns about energy, companies are putting more emphasis on effective management and usage of transportation services. This paper studies the transportation pricing problem of a truckload carrier in a setting that consists of a retailer, a truckload carrier and a less than truckload carrier. In this setting, the truckload carrier makes his/her pricing decision based on previous knowledge on the less than truckload carrier's price schedule and the retailer's ordering behavior. The retailer then makes a determination of his/her order quantity through an integrated model that explicitly considers the transportation alternatives, and the related costs (i.e., bimodal transportation costs) and capacities. In the paper, the retailer's replenishment problem and the truckload carrier's pricing problem are modeled and solved based on a detailed analysis. Numerical evidence shows that the truckload carrier may increase his/her gainings significantly through better pricing and there is further opportunity of savings if the truckload carrier and the retailer coordinate their decisions.

“…Mendoza and Ventura (2008) presented an algorithm based on a grossly simplified freight rate structure for truckload (TL) or least-then-truckload (LTL) shipments. Rieksts and Ventura (2008;2010) considered a combination of two different modes of transportation: LTL and FTL (full truckload). In the field of supply chain coordination, researches such as Viau et al (2009) and Kim and Goyal (2009) focused on the integration of inventory and transportation decisions.…”

Greenhouse gas penalty and incentive policies for a joint economic lot size model with industrial and transport emissions

This paper presents a joint economic lot size model for a single manufacturer-a single buyer. The purposed model involves the greenhouse gas emission from industrial and transport sectors. We divide the emission into two types, namely the direct and indirect emissions. In this paper, we consider the Government's penalty and incentive policies to reduce the emission. We assume that the demand of the buyer is normally distributed and partially backordered. The objective is to minimize joint total cost incurred by a single manufacturer-a single buyer and involves the transportation costs of the freight forwarder. Transportation costs are the function of shipping weight, distance, fuel price and consumption with two transportation modes: truckload and lessthan-truckload shipments. Finally, an algorithm procedure is proposed to determine the optimal order quantity, safety factor, actual shipping weight, total emission and frequency of deliveries. Numerical examples and analyses are given to illustrate the results.

“…They developed two modelsnamely, decentralised and centralised ordering model to investigate the effect of collecting ordering by retailers on the total inventory cost of the system. Similarly, Rieksts and Ventura (2010) developed inventory models over an infinite planning horizon with constant demand rate and two modes of transportation consisting of truckloads (TL) and a less than truckload (LTL). An optimal algorithm is derived for a one-warehouse one-retailer system.…”

This paper proposes model to integrate production, inventory and transportation decision in a whole green manufacturing supply chain. The integration includes reuse and remanufacturing of returned used products. The manufacturing supply chain consists of tier-2 and tier-1 suppliers, a manufacturer, distributors, retailers and a third party. The manufacturer dissembles used products into parts. Reusable parts are remanufactured and reused again in finished products. A mathematical model is developed to coordinate production, inventory and transportation decision which considers multiple products simultaneously with determination of number of transportation units needed to deliver the finished products subject to their own capacities. Solution methods for the model are proposed based on three types of coordination mechanisms, decentralised, semi-centralised and centralised decision processes. The model and solution methods are illustrated with two numerical examples and results and findings are discussed.
