Assignment Process for the Optimization of the Products Distribution in the Commercial Centres

Abstract

The objective of this article was to show the importance of the correct choice of the assignment method in the commercial process under uncertainty. The globalization process and the current economic crisis have forced the companies to make the profound changes in their management policies and strategies and also to base their decision making process on the flexible instruments that can consider any relevant information. We developed a study case using Hungarian Algorithm. This algorithm allows obtaining an optimization in the assignment process between two groups of variables according to some common characteristics.
