Proposed Package Distribution Routes at PT. Pos Indonesia Mail Processing Center Bandung
Abstract
Pos Indonesia is a delivery service provider company that has a central distribution center in the
region of West Java, which is the Mail Processing Center Bandung. MPC Bandung has a function to regulate
the distribution of packages according to the destination area. The company has a target to minimize
transportation costs when shipping goods. The delivery process carried out by MPC Bandung can be
modeled as the Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP). This research focuses on the efficiency of the distribution
routes of documents and packages to 12 destination post offices in the secondary West Java Region. Analysis
was conducted using two classical heuristic methods, Clarke and Wright Savings and Nearest Neighbor, with
the aim of obtaining a more optimal route in order to minimize transportation costs. Alternative 2, which is
designed using the CAWSA method, was chosen to be the best alternative because it produces the shortest
mileage output of 894.2 km per day with a savings of 54.11% on the existing route, which has a total mileage
of 1,948.7 km. This alternative was chosen as a proposed route improvement for the company. The
transportation cost efficiency was obtained at 50.94% from Rp. 115.546.200 for the existing route to Rp.
56,686,500 for the selected route.
