The logistics network of an automotive company in Mexico was analyzed to propose a better logistics network in the country to improve delivery times to customers. The analysis was conducted with Greenfield Analysis and Network Optimization. Taking into account the information given by the company, it was possible to obtain optimal scenarios for better operation, which involved the construction of distribution centers in the Hidalgo state in Mexico. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020.

Business Logistics, or Supply Chain, has acquired a notorious relevance in current business management, due to its highly significant impact on the success of the production and service sectors. This work proposes the design of a supply chain that considers disruptive scenarios and improves the level of service compared to the current situation. Discrete event simulation techniques are used in conjunction with agent-based modeling to define production orders. A hypothetical case study was developed to show the performance of the proposal. © 2021, ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering.
