Supply chain, logistics & transport

View of Melbourne's West

Our research explores the impact of global developments in the management of performance and productivity in supply chain, logistics and transport. We use carbon accounting, optimisation tools, system dynamics, mathematical modelling and simulations to identify problems and predict the behaviour of supply chains.

We also focus on reducing the cost of information congestion and isolation, and promote software re-use through identification of functionality, shared data, visibility of applications and extendable infrastructure.
