Abstract

In collaborative transportation planning, independent forwarders align their transportation plans by exchanging requests within a horizontal coalition. The goal of the coalition members is to increase their profitability and flexibility in competitive markets with high demand fluctuations. In recent publications, it is assumed that each request can be fulfilled by any coalition member. However, in practice some requests are prohibited to be forwarded due to contractual agreements. These requests are known as compulsory requests. The contribution of this paper is to identify the increase of costs caused by compulsory requests of a collaborative pickup and delivery transportation planning problem. To analyze the impact of compulsory requests, an existing column generation-based heuristic with two solution strategies for handling compulsory requests is applied and investigated.
