NO (Network Optimization) is a Network Optimization simulator that compares the location of the facility, the volume in charge, and the storage facility for each product. We look at both the reduction in facility operating costs and the additional transportation costs.
Review data and results

| facility reorganization/candidate site | Center location/CAPA/add/relocate alternatives | Changes in cost and volume allocation |
| RDC quantity | Store in charge, demand by store, RDC CAPA | Store transfer and overload/idle capacity |
| Inventory by product | Number of days of inventory, product volume, storage price, trunk cost | Storage facility and storage/transportation cost alternatives |
