Abstract
The present study proposes a Territory Design Strategy for the Multiperiod Vehicle Routing Problem with Simultaneous Pickup and Delivery and Time Windows (TD-MPVRPSPDTW). This problem deals with the design of compact and contiguous territories to simultaneously collect and deliver orders from a warehouse to customers who have time windows requirements in a multi-period approach. This problem is motivated by the circularity of the supply chain because it helps to integrate the delivery and collection of products. Besides, the proposed territory design strategy lets generate consistent routing plans due to each driver being assigned to one territory. We proposed a mixed-integer linear programming model (MILP) for the problem, which is solved using a metaheuristic algorithm. We evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm through benchmark instances.
