Abstract

This research is to arrange the transportation route of the case study comparing between routing using Saving Algorithm and Nearest Neighbor Algorithm. With the objective to study the traditional shipping path of the company, case study And analyzed to compare the new routing to be able to reduce transportation costs the results from the comparative analysis of the two methods are as follows: 1. Alignment by using the Saving Algorithm method, resulting in 3 transportation vehicles with a total distance of 513.59 on average. Kilometers per day Can reduce the total distance of 429 kilometers per day, cost reduced by 57.37%. 2. Routing by using The Nearest Neighbor Algorithm makes it possible to use 3 transportation vehicles with an average total distance of 405.68 kilometers per day, costs reduced by 58.42%
