  • In order to decide the best delivery time points, three cases of single delivery target were studied by using p-median model, the mathematical models of least delivery times, minimum delivery time and minimum transportation cost under the condition of freight discount were build, and taking air cargo transportation as a case, their delivery time points were calculated by using ILOG optimization software.Analysis result shows that the average delivery time of least delivery times is 1.6 times higher than the average minimum delivery time, and the delivery time of realizing minimum transportation cost under the condition of freight discount is longer than that without freight discount.So consignors or logistics service providers can choose the models to decide the best delivery time points according to customer requirements.
