CROSS DOCKING CHALLENGES; AN INVESTIGATIVE APPROACH

Abstract

This thesis is a study of the cross docking challenges; an investigative approach. The following variables were used Cross Docking on Layout Design of Dock, Transshipment, and Cost Optimization was kept as the independent variable, and Performance of the firm was a dependent variable. After an in deeply review of literature, three hypotheses were designed in which all independent variables significant are positively related to performance of the firm. The survey was conducted to collect the data from the employees of different organizations. The non-probabilistic procedures was used to draw a sample. Analysis was made then, in which results showed that Cross Docking on Layout Design of Dock, Transshipment, and Cost Optimization have positive effect on performance of the firm.
