Abstract

This paper chooses rice container transportation as the case, studies on the relationship between container packing and container shipping, analyse the main operation players, such as packaging provider, cargo owners, port & shipping company, to find its impact on container supply chain’s KPI, identify the environmental impact and business benefits, under optimising container packing and shipping solutions. Then, according to the business case and container transport scenarios, it will build a mathematical Model to each scenario, in order to calculate and compare their container supply chain’s KPI with different container shipping packages. After analysing the business cost, environment impact and lead time in each model, a decision-making framework will be given for container packing and shipping solutions by optimising the combination structure of different container supply chain and container shipping packages.
