description Discusses the design of large-scale distribution networks which entails taking decisions on a large number of issues that are all closely interrelated, making it difficult to develop a competitive distribution strategy. Many support systems for distribution planning have been developed, but, they do not facilitate a coherent approach to the design process. Presents a logistic planning system that provides dedicated support for all issues involved in distribution planning. The foundation of which is an integrated planning support framework. Proposes that small models dedicated to only part of the total design process provide the best support for logistic planning and that such models encapsulated in a framework lead to optimal system design. Suggests that when the support system is applied to strategic tactical distribution planning, the design process requires less time and less expert capacity, while resulting in a more competitive logistic supply chain.
