Question

You run an agricultural distribution company that distributes urea fertilizers to large farm units. You use an optimized supply chain network model that has been developed by a supply chain consultant. You noticed that the actual cost and level of service varies widely with what is given by the model. Since you have taken SC2x, you were able to open the model and understand its formation. You noticed that the model assumes the following incorrect assumptions:

• The supply of fertilizer to each warehouse is deterministic.
• The demand for fertilizer remains the same in winter and summer weather.

You have scheduled a meeting with the consultant to ask them to improve the model. What additional considerations would you suggest them to include in the existing model?
