Abstract
The total assembly work is often implemented at the manufacture, and we propose that the total assembly work and some customization of parts at manufacture should be outsourced to distribution center of 3PL (third party logistics) company to reduce the level of inventory and cost of the whole supply chain, i.e. moving the CODP (customer order decoupling point) to distribution center in the downstream, and then, the advantage and condition of this strategy will be analyzed.
