MT4102: Describe your recommendation on how TCC should implement the TaaH concept in Singapore: Distribution & Warehouse Assignment, NTU, Singapore

ASSIGNMENT

Describe your recommendation on how TCC should implement the TaaH concept in Singapore, and how it can fit in its longer-term distribution network. Although your answer should focus more on the operational aspects (Logistics Drivers and service), you may include others (e.g., CrossFunctional Drivers) that you deem to be relevant. Lecture 4 Distribution Network Design and Lecture 5 Transportation in Distribution Networks, are most relevant to this assignment. In your recommendations, you should include the following:

• Likely advantages and disadvantages of the TaaH concept in your answer. Highlight the likely trade-offs faced by TCC involving the concept.
• Additional features and improvements that can be incorporated by TCC in the concept.

• How best to integrate the TaaH concept into TCC’s distribution network and delivery methods (e.g., automated parcel lockers and collection points)

• How TCC can reconfigure the network to better align with the TaaH concept, given TCC’s intention to reconfigure its network.

• Limitations, challenges and/or risks in implementing this concept. Highlight the possible modifications that could be needed over the intended lifespan of the system should the TaaH concept is implemented.
