Abstract:
The timely procurement and delivery of
materials / equipment to yard, site and assembly
locations requires a huge team effort and is
paramount for the successful work done for
shipyards and construction sites.The ERRP deals
with pickup and delivery of materials from a depot
to delivery point among the sites or yards by a
fleet of vehicles which are operated by a set of
drivers who perform movements on an
appropriate road network.Details of this paper is
to study centroid-based heuristic algorithm by
Kwangcheol and Sangyong[1] for clustering the
delivery points with three phases: cluster
construction, cluster adjustment and nearest
neighbor algorithm for Travelling Salesman
Problem (TSP) for route establishment to come
out the feasible effective routing and resource
planning result to help in real world heavy
industries’ logistics.
