Sesión virtual “Describing the Distribution Center”
Bogotá D.C, Colombia 2017
INTRODUCTION
If it is known with the requirement of a product and if so, it can be supplied instantaneously, it is not necessary to store it. But even so the distribution activities may be able to give immediate answers. Due to these factors, there is a need for a logistics distribution network as an effective solution for the treatment of the problems associated with the uncertainty of the demand, the cost and duration of transport and the demands of the profitability of the organizations. In these logistical networks, Regulatory Warehouses and Distribution Centers (CDs) are important im portant as nodes towards consumption points. Distribution Centers are a key success factor for the effective management of the chain of distribution and distribution of organizations that grow in sales, however, over time they have not been valued by the high threats of modern organizations and with many failures and opportunities for improvement in their storage processes and sizing of the impact on the logistics operation of distribution centers that can do their daily activities without a comprehensive planning approach, and therefore, without the application of best practices in the activities that are currently critical such as the process of receipt, storage, separation, enlistment and clearance of goods, and that is understood and applied in a progressive and effective way contributes to the generation of value in the logistics operation of the company through the effective application of techniques, methodology, tools and technological developments in order to convert the logistics of the distribution center into a competitive advantage for modern companies and configure efficient and effective performance for the increase of the service level for internal and external customers. The analysis, design and implementation of CD allow us to discover and create an efficient flow from the supplier to the final consumer, that is, the function of a logistic process influenced by 2 factors, the variability of the products and the sales volume, it is logical that a higher sales volume greater complexity in the operations of the distribution center, greater variability; this reference to the instability of the houses by sales of each product, the height of the highest values of the sales makes that the complexity in the distribution centers owed to the analysis, taking to the technology as our ally in the aggregation of value.
Actividad de aprendizaje 9 Evidencia 5: Sesión virtual “Describing “Describing the Distribution Center” The location of the distribution center (CEDI), The distribution center is located at Kilometer 17 via Ibague - Bogotá Corregimiento Buenos Aires. The reasons why why this place was chosen because because it has good access roads to important cities such as Bogotá, Ibagué, Neiva, Florencia, Palmira, Cali. It is the solution solution to the mobilization of heavy heavy cargo, warehousing warehousing and storage of goods in the Ibagué - Bogotá - Buenaventura, Ibagué - Atlantic Coast, with the best location in the center of the Golden Triangle of Colombia and indispensable within the concept for the Free trade agreements.

The creation of a distribution center aims to store raw material or finished product to be able to get the products to their final destination, in the most effective, fast and economic way possible, allowing the company to keep customers permanently and adequately supplied. according to the customer service policies, in accordance with the demanding requirements of the market. • Increase profitability by optimizing resources. • Have indispensable load handling equipment • Have reliable information about their deliveries and inventories. • Have the product available for its customers its customers with a low level of inventories. • In short, give a better use to t o what you have and have what is needed in the right place for the flow of your processes. ADVANTAGE • Increase in profitability => Avoid heavy investments in capital • Reduced risk. risk. • Cost reduction => Increase of the benefit. By delegating on experts, who in addition to being focused on logistics have a critical mass that allows economies of scale. Variability cost cost => Go Go from fixed costs to variables. Pay according according to the volume. If I move, I pay little. Improvement in the quality and level of service.
Lighten the structure of the company => Lets focus on on the logistics strategy and not on the execution. Execution is outsourced, but not control. Others: Take Take advantage advantage of the operators' distribution network, opening to a new market. Streamlines product inputs and outputs.
The details that I consider for the construction of a distribution center are:
High capital investment. Higher costs than rented warehouses, if the use is low. Difficulty in strategic location changes. The purchase lots are large Higher investment and demand for more storage space. The cycles cycles between between the placement of one order and another are are very long, therefore, it will be more difficult to know what the future demand will be when good inventory management is not generated.
