SFLO is a tool used for supply chain design and analysis by leveraging optimization methods, as well as for facility location analysis.
SFLO (Smart Facility Location Optimizer) is a decision support system for facility placement that utilizes optimization methods. It calculates the optimal locations for factories and distribution centers, as well as their production and processing capacities, for companies that manufacture products and manage logistics both domestically and globally, and determines the optimal allocation between distribution centers and customers. SFLO is also used as a strategic logistics network design tool, helping to design supply chains that minimize total logistics costs while adhering to various constraints and creating new project proposals. SFLO has already been utilized in many cases, achieving significant cost reductions (10-15%).
