Many companies utilize a number of complex product distribution networks to transport various types of goods. Most of their distribution networks consist of transporting goods from their suppliers to their Distribution Centers (DCs). In the process of transporting goods from suppliers to DCs, cross docking facilities are utilized to consolidate loads in order to minimize costs. A simulation model of a generic cross-docking facility (CF) was developed to examine the operational risks associated with individual CFs within a company's distribution network under a dynamic environment. The model was tested and validated on a large cross-docking facility. In addition, it was used to examine the effect of increasing demand through the cross-docking facility. The model is generic and can easily be expanded to model other cross-docking facilities.
