Study On Decision-making Methods And Applications In Car Carriers Of Vehicle Logistics Procurement

As specialized tools for transporting commercial vehicles, car carries is ofsignificant importance in the field of modern vehicle logistics and large amount oflogistics enterprises usually adopt the car transporter’s prize as main factors forbidding evaluation in the process of select and purchase. However, in a degree a carcarries is special plant-size equipment that has its own management attributes andrequirements, which means different line operators, target subjects and numbers woulddirectly lead to different efficiency, profits as well as the cost. Obviously, it isunadvisable to list equipment prize as the only evidence in a certain bidding evaluationand the essay below illustrates the research towards the car carries’ bidding evaluationprocess and methods in today’s modern automobile logistics.In the beginning, the essay analyses the characteristics of car carries procurementand correspondent factors attributed to a successful bid, then builds up a relativelycomplete bidding evaluation system and studies the cost calculation at the same time.Second, this essay adopts AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) in order to tackle theproblem of decision-making of procurement. The contents are as following:1. Focusing on car carries’ procurement, the paper discussed internal and externalsituations, characteristics in purchase process and summarized the correlate purchasemethods. At the same time, this paper proposed some important factors in certainprocurement of car carries and introduced the related theory and evaluation methods.2. The paper build a biding evaluation’s indicate system of car carriesprocurement. Specifically, according to the design disciplines of bidding evaluationsystem, which are systematicness, simplicity, independence and flexibility, the paperdesigned a bidding evaluation system step by step and mainly on the basis of threeaspects including supplier, car carries’ quality and the cost.3. The paper introduced the calculation (AHP) in decision-making, especially theoperation cost of key indicators which influence the result of procurement severely. Inthe end, it shows how to reach the minimum cost as well as the specific calculationprocess towards the improved strategy. 4. At last is the actual case test towards the result of the research. AHP wouldapplied in practical cases and we could reach to a final purchase offer after analyzingevery indicators in bidding evaluation system.
