Implementación de un modelo matemático para la mejora del proceso de reubicación de unidades no vendidas en Arturo Calle

Abstract

Comercializadora Arturo Calle SAS is a Colombian textile company founded in 1966 and since then one of its objectives has been to ensure the greatest variety of products, both in models, references and sizes in stores in order to offer its customers the product they need when they need it. From this point on, the process of relocation of unsold units was considered, in order to consolidate the final units of the different products in the stores that present the best sales opportunity for each of them. Therefore, the project of implementing a mathematical model that uses heuristic techniques and improves the current relocation process in the company was created, a model that characterizes the parameters and variables that are essential for the company such as the budget, the average unit curves, the restrictions of garments in specific stores, among others. The result is a process that improves the quality of inventory in stores by up to 25% and reduces the execution time of the process previously used by up to 70%, since it is now an automated process that uses the Google Colab tool to run the code that was used to structure the heuristic using the Python programming language.
