Abstract

Abstract: To optimize the vaccination network, inventory strategy and human resource allocation in Nanshan District, Supply Chain Guru's (SCG) network optimization method is used to select 50 alternative stations to decrease the fixed operating cost. SCG's inventory optimization method is used to set inventory strategy for each station, and simulation method is designed to compare total cost of all schemes. To optimize the opening days of vaccination stations, an medical personnel allocation rule is designed, which reduces some stations' opening days to 2 or 3 days and increases some stations' medical personnel. An simulation method is designed to compare the total costs and service levels of different schemes. The optimized network opens 48 stations, which reduces the total cost by ¥950,000 yuan, a saving of 4.93%. The optimized vaccination human resource allocation reduces medical personnel by 56.6% and saves labor cost by 6.54 million. The vaccination network optimization and human resource allocation method can reduce the cost of vaccination supply chain, and the simulation method can provide reference to the decision makers.
