Facility location concerns high impact strategic decision-making in supply chain design. One of the most important issues regarding such decision is a suitable selection of incident factors due to their effects on costs and customer service level. This paper was thus aimed at presenting a methodology for defining and hierarchising a group of factors which affect decision-making concerning facility location. The methodology was based on expert methods, incorporating a goal programming application extended to support weighting. Colombian biofuels sector results are presented.
La localización de instalaciones, es una decisión estratégica de alto impacto en el diseño de cadenas de abastecimiento. Uno de los aspectos más importantes en la decisión, es la selección de los factores incidentes dados sus efectos en los costos y en el nivel de servicio hacia los clientes. En este sentido, el presente artículo expone una metodología que permite establecer y ponderar el grupo de factores que afectan las decisiones de la localización. La metodología, se basa en el uso de métodos de expertos e incorpora una aplicación de la programación por metas, extendida para el proceso de ponderación. Finalmente, se presentan los resultados obtenidos en el sector de biocombustibles colombiano.
