The Depot optimization system is an application product developed completely using the NCL mathematical language. Running on the POEM optimization platform, TMS Depot aims to minimize the total cost, subject to the following constraints: minimal and maximal capacity of each depot, distance matrix between clients and depots, vehicle types and capacities, distribution radius, and product types, etc. 

TMS Depot is a multi-user system and supports multi-solution management. Its functionalities include data processing, auto-optimization, map/table/histogram based visualization and interaction. Users can consult and analyze the demands, deliveries and their corresponding costs from different perspectives. On maps, users can intuitively move clients to depots , add/delete clients or modify their demands, add/delete depots or modify their capacities.
