Abstract
The transportation problem (TP) is a frequently used optimization technique in operations research for studying difficulties involving the transportation of commodities from manufacturing locations to retail outlets. Lowering transportation costs is one possible purpose of the TP, reducing the distance travelled in terms of time, and so on. Solving such issues can be done systematically. We do this by determining the problem's Initial Basic Feasible Solution (IBFS). The usual methods for determining the IBFS are Vogel's Approximation technique, Least Cost technique, and the North-West Corner technique. Several more techniques to handle such difficulties have been proposed in recent years. In this article, we offer a new technique for solving the transportation problem, and its efficacy is compared to that of existing solutions. Calculation of the result shows that it is straightforward and close to the ideal solution to the issue.
