Its results, if compared with other methods, are not always optimum; however, if the experiment is rightly elaborated, its results will represent the real situation, enabling its use with a good level of reliability. This work used the simulation (through the ProModel (R) software) in order to study, understand, model and improve the expenditure system of an enterprise, with a premise of keeping the production-delivery flow considering quick, controlled and reliable conditions.186-194engsimulationlogisticssoftwarecost minimizationoptimizationTrabalho apresentado em eventoWOS:000255591900019Acesso aberto
