Abstract

In Korean express delivery service market, many domestic companies have been competing fiercely to extend their own market share. The line-haul vehicles operated by the express delivery service companies in Korea in general can be classified into three types depending on the ways their expenses occur; company-owned vehicle, mandated vehicle which is owned by outsider who entrust the company with its operation, and rented vehicle (outsourcing). Actually, most of the line-haul vehicles in express delivery services belong to the mandated vehicle class. Hence, this study suggests an approach to the design of a service network with pick-up and delivery visits for mandated line-haul vehicles with the objective of maximizing the incremental profits of the drivers of the vehicles under the assumption that express delivery service companies operate mandated vehicles only. A genetic algorithm-based heuristic is developed and tested through an example problem.
