Abstract

The paper analyzes and optimizes the supply chain network and inventory management of W Company, improves the operational efficiency and reduces costs, and provides reference for the supply chain network reconstruction and inventory control optimization under the complex economic environment. In the process of constructing the supply chain network optimization model of W Company, this paper integrated 2,316 shipping records and 100,645 customer order data to ensure that the fulfillment of each order can be accurately tracked. By matching the quantity of products and services in the shipping record with the demand in the customer order, the consistency of the total inflow and outflow of RDC was verified, thus ensuring the balance of supply chain flow. Further, this paper analyzed 5,091 types of transport matrix data to evaluate the transportation route, cost and time from the regional distribution center (RDC) to the customer. Analysis of these data is essential to optimize the logistics path and reduce transportation costs.
