Methodology of Selection of Heavy and Oversized Freight Transportation System

Abstract

Dynamically changing economic conditions influence the growing demand of various freights transportation. Inevitably, the demand for heavy and oversized freight transportation is increasing, which is quite problematic. In many cases, it is very difficult to standardize the technology of heavy and oversized freight transportation. Decisions are necessary, which would allow to deliver heavy or oversized freight to the destination place, allocating fewer funds as possible for infrastructure improvements, choosing the most appropriate mode of transport for such freight transportation or using advantages of multimodal (combined) transport. In this article there will be selected methodology of heavy and oversized freight transportation system, carrying heavy and oversized freight by road transport. There will also be made an approval of this methodology, based on a hypothetical route within Lithuanian territory.

A Model for Managing Logistics Costs Throughout a Product’s Life Cycle: A Case Study of a Multinational Manufacturing Company

“…To achieve this objective, the structure of the logistics systems was identified and the most substantial cost elements in the logistics subsystems were defined. Petraška et al (2017Petraška et al ( , 2018 proposed a methodology, which would allow to deliver heavy or oversized freight to the destination, allocating the least possible amount of funds for infrastructure improvements, choosing the most appropriate mode of transport for this type of freight transportation or using the advantages of multimodal (combined) transport. Ji et al (2018) studied the logistics scheduling problem in the context of a three-stage supply chain where the objective is to minimise the sum of the total weighted inventory cost and transport cost.…”

“…Authors of study [1] propose an approach to identification of characteristics of objects of configuration of project products. Works [2][3][4][5] are about improvement of efficiency of using of project configuration objects by different criteria (cost, environmental impact, etc.). Works [6][7][8] take into account features of the use of configuration objects in projects.…”
