A process for determining an optimal method and cost of packaging and shipping goods gathers data from sources including order information, product characteristics, packaging materials and specifications, labor rates, and shipping and transportation rates in order to determine an optimal configuration for packaging for a designated freight mode and time. The process determines the optimal method by considering any specifications or requirements for the order, lead times, available packaging materials and freight options, and then calculates the least total cost of material, labor, and freight combined. The process is designed to provide the cost of packaging and shipping information in real time, when a buyer and seller are deciding whether to consummate a transaction.

Un procédé de détermination d'un mode et d'un coût optimaux de conditionnement et d'expédition de marchandises consiste à réunir des données provenant de sources contenant des informations de commandes, des caractéristiques de produits, des matériaux et des spécifications de conditionnement, et des coûts de main d'oeuvre, et des prix d'expédition et de transport afin de déterminer une configuration optimale de conditionnement pour un mode et un temps de fret désigné. Le procédé détermine le mode optimal par considération de toute spécification ou condition pour la commande, les délais d'exécution, les matériaux de conditionnement disponibles ainsi que les options de fret, et ensuite il calcule le coût total le moins élevé de matériau, de main d'oeuvre et de fret combinés. Le procédé est conçu pour fournir le coût d'informations de conditionnement et d'expédition en temps réel, lorsqu'un acheteur et un vendeur décident de conclure une transaction.
