Abstract
Presents a methodology called controllability analysis in logistics. Controllability focuses on two first steps of the simulation project: problem definition; and data gathering and analysis. The aim of the analysis is to reveal the potential improvement areas, and define and analyse the data so that they are ready for the simulation process. Clarifies with a case study the methodology and its use as a part of a logistics simulation project.
