ANLY482 AY2017-18 T1 Group2 Project EZLin Project Methodology
After the data preparation, we will first perform an exploratory analysis into the shipment flow between each plants and distribution center. We will also be using some data visualisation methods to visualise the shipment flow. Our main focus is to compare the shipment and production in different area and the cost involved. Through this comparative analysis, we are hoping to be able to identify some abnormal patterns, like the cost involved in a particular part of the supply chain is comparatively more expensive than in other area. Thus, XXX can better allocate their resources to address such an issue.
Following that, we will seek to identify factors that influence the cost by building models such as linear regression or logistic regression. We will then use some proper visualisation tools to illustrate each factor’s influence on cost . All the analysis and visualisation mentioned above will be collected in a dashboard reporting system which will be user-friendly and sustainable for XXX in the long run.
