Classification of Vehicle Routing Problems as a Concept of a Decision-Making Tool in Distribution Logistics

Abstract The article follows an extensive investigation of individual variants of Vehicle Routing Problems (VRP) in distribution logistics. The paper aims to use the existing research and the developed VRP classification to design a new concept of decision tool. The research methods are analysis, synthesis, induction, deduction, comparison, and expert interviews. The tool will be able to provide quick information to the professional public and users without prior knowledge based on a created and easily accessible decision-making environment. In this article, user-flexible and fully or partially free options including the structure of concept of decision tool are presented. They will enable developers to prepare an efficient solution that guides the user through the VRP database using the form.
