1) Development of a Least Cost Node Covering Approach -Bank Stationery Delivery) Transportation plays a critical role in logistics, with transportation costs being a significant expense incurred when moving products or assets from one location to another. Commercial organizations, which often operate delivery services on a regular basis, rely heavily on vehicles, leading to various cost components that contribute to overall operating expenses. As transportation costs represent a major expenditure, it is essential to adopt quantitative methods for measuring and analyzing these cost components to minimize expenses effectively. However, in Sri Lanka, a comprehensive mechanism for such measurements has not yet been developed. This study aims to address the limitations of existing methods and propose a mechanism to overcome these challenges. The research focuses on a monthly delivery service implemented by a selected organization, involving the use of a van to distribute stationery and collect documents (e.g., cash deposit slips) from multiple branches. The study examines the vehicle operating costs associated with this delivery process, providing insights and recommendations to optimize transportation-related expenses. 2) The Fortune Farmer Mobile Application Business Plan Fortune Farmer is a revolutionary milk delivery service dedicated to providing fresh, healthy, and chemical-free milk directly to customers’ doorsteps.
