Abstract

The transportation problem is one of the important problems in operations research related to the distribution of goods from several sources to several destinations at minimum cost. This problem aims to determine the number of goods that must be shipped from each source to each destination so that all demand is met with the lowest possible total distribution cost. This study applies the SS Method (Sheethalakshmy–Srinivasan) as a direct approach to solving transportation problems without the need to determine a feasible initial solution. The SS Method offers systematic steps through row and column reduction processes and cost reduction calculation to obtain optimal solutions for both balanced and unbalanced transportation cases. The results of the application of this method show that the SS Method is able to provide optimal solutions efficiently with a shorter calculation time compared to conventional methods such as North West Corner, Least Cost, and Vogel's Approximation. Thus, the SS Method can be used as an effective alternative in optimizing distribution costs in modern logistics systems.

Abstract

The objective of this research is to find the best logistics solution for various purposes at minimal cost. The development of a new initial feasible solution (IBFS) algorithm is the first step toward finding the optimal solution. This new method for initial feasible solutions reduces the number of iterations and produces the best solution for transportation problems at an early stage. The literature review covers various IBFS methods. The new IBFS was discovered using statistical techniques such as normal distribution and root mean square techniques. A transportation problem is converted into a normal distribution, and the penalty is determined using the root mean square method. The normal distribution value can be calculated using Excel Solver. In the second step, a step-by-step method is used to find the optimal solution. Numerical calculations are used to calculate the research results and compared with the Sirisha-Viola method in determining a feasible optimal solution.
