Milk procurement system in a typical farmers’ dairy organisation Milk in vessels Milk in cans through vehicles Farmers Dairy Co-op Society (DCS) Chilling Centre Dairy plant Through trucks Milk procurement route optimisation using GIS in a farmers' dairy organisation
Present case study • A typical milk union in Maharashtra • 138 pick up points • Milk collected in two shifts • Routing is manually planned • Farthest point first Milk procurement route optimisation using GIS in a farmers' dairy organisation
Vehicle types and their carrying capacity • Tata 407 = 44 cans • Mahindra max = 40 cans • Minidor = 20 cans • Rickshaw = 8 cans • * each can of 40 lit capacity. Milk procurement route optimisation using GIS in a farmers' dairy organisation
Milk procurement transportation from villages • All vehicles -Start from Dairy plant • - Come back to Dairy plant • Dairy co-operative Society – Source points • Dairy Plant – Sink point • Volumes change : Summer and Winter • Medium sized union – 800 source points, 4-6 Chilling centers/Dairy plants Milk procurement route optimisation using GIS in a farmers' dairy organisation
Our objective… • Efficient transport system • Minimise transportation cost • Validating current routes • Scope of improvement • Quicker planning Milk procurement route optimisation using GIS in a farmers' dairy organisation
Business constraints • Time • Vehicle Capacity • Time windows • Transportation rate Milk procurement route optimisation using GIS in a farmers' dairy organisation
Methodology • Data Used: • GPS locations of DCS • Road Network Analysis: Vehicle Routing problem using ArcGIS Network Analyst Optimised Routes: 11 Routes covering 138 DCS Milk procurement route optimisation using GIS in a farmers' dairy organisation
