Location-allocation: allow demand points to be served by more than one facility

ErvinDelic

Hello everyone,

As written in the header, I need to perform a location-allocation analysis while allowing demands points to be served by more than one facility simultaneously. Also, I would like to be able for demand points to look up or compute, how much the proportion of demand points served by each facility.

Is there any tool that allow for this?

Thank you in advance and kind regards

Currently in Location-Allocation, a demand point can only be assigned to one facility. What is your criteria for it to be served by a second facility? Are you trying to run with facility capacity and need to demand to be split? In that case you can place more than one demand point at that location and split the demand between them and then summarize later.
