24/04/2019 Prof. Laura Turrini (EBS Business School), on "The impact of consolidation hubs on epidemics response supply chains"

 

Abstract

We focus on epidemics response supply chains and use system dynamics to model the impact of the logistics distribution structure on programs efficiency and effectiveness. We derive valuable insights for humanitarian operation managers. We use real data from the Ebola response to validate our model.
