“Propuesta de un modelo logístico para optimizar la distribución de productos de la empresa Mega Superior en el cantón Santo Domingo”

Abstract

The Mega Superior company located in the Santo Domingo canton, in recent years has detected some deficiencies related to the distributions of products like the escape of resources and time when executing the process. The objective of this study was to optimize the product distribution process by designing a logistics model to guarantee its proper functionality for which it was necessary to study the main concepts and theories relevant to the subject, such as defining: distribution, logistics, logistics models, among others presented in this document. We used a mixed-type investigative approach, since through the organizational population of this company we established a current scenario, therefore, an interview was carried out with the general manager to know the organizational functioning of the company and to know the satisfaction of current processes, a survey was applied to the personnel who work there. The applied design was of a non-experimental type as we did not build the scenario, but we established the causes of the problem during operations. The results obtained were the lack of a logistics model that is currently applied in the distribution of products and the dissatisfaction by the personnel. When establishing the problem, the application of a logistics model is proposed to solve these problems and for its development it was based on the adequate execution of each process according to its supply chain, resulting in a process scheme according to each area developed by Mega Superior, thus achieving the creation of optimal distribution routes and schedules through the application of the SOLVER model.
