Stateline Shipping and Transport Company Math 540 Assignment 4 Jennifer Harris 1.) The model transportation problem consists of 18 decision variables which are the number of barrels of wastes transported from each of the six plants to each of the three waste disposal sites. The objective of the problem is to develop a shipping schedule that minimizes the total cost of transportation. The objective function Z represents the cost. In this transportation model the decision variables, Xij, represent the quantity of waste transported from the i-th plant (where i=1,2,3,4,5,6) to the j-th waste disposal site (where j= A,B,C).

A lot of research goes into making business decisions but if for each decision, one had to follow the Bazerman and Moore’s six-step model even less would get accomplished.

Qualitative Analysis • If the outsourcing contract is maintained, the Component Division wouldn’t work as a cost center which does not follow the Company’s mission. • CTR1 units being core components of the PCU, relying on an external supplier would damage Seagull’s competitive advantage. • The expanded capacity for the JAFAR contract supports the company’s growth objective. • The addition of a third shift may present challenges that can be overcome in the short-run but not on the long run (such as maintenance, breakage, rest, interruption and holidays). • Current performance metrics lead the Component division to inflate transfer prices.
