Abstract: | The Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConDOT) was charged with investigating the possibility of reducing costs by operating with fewer than 13 equipment repair facilities. Using a mixed-integer programming model, the authors helped ConDOT identify options for achieving savings without sacrificing quality of service. A key feature of the model is that it establishes repair capacities based on the past performance of benchmark facilities within the system. |
