Case Study 1: Bahouth Ltd. is planning for the next two years of production and debating whether to construct a large cross-dock facility with 40 truck bays or a smaller one with 20 truck bays. The cost to build the large facility is $2 million and the cost to build the small one is $1.2 million. If they construct a large facility and demand is as high as they hope, then operating costs are $450,000 annually. If they construct a large facility and demand is low, then operating costs are $300,000. If they construct a small facility and demand is low, the operating costs are $275,000 but if they experience high demand, the operating cost of a small facility increases to $600,000. After having conducted some market research, they feel that the likelihood of high demand is 0.7 and the likelihood of small demand is 0.3. (Note that there is no return rate, meaning return rate is 0%) Use the information from Case Study 1 to determine the cost of the best alternative for a two year period. (Hint: you need to include the building costs in this question. In other words, add the building costs to the answers of questions 1 and 2 and pick the best one.)

Network design decisions significantly impact performance because they determine the supply chain configuration and set constraints within which inventory, transportation, and information can be used to either decrease supply chain cost or increase responsiveness.
