Network & Distribution Design

The right footprint, lanes, and inventory positioning.

Where your inventory sits determines how fast and how cheaply you can serve customers. WECL models your network — distribution centers, lanes, and inventory positioning — to find the footprint that lowers total landed cost while hitting service targets.

We quantify the trade-offs so leadership can decide with confidence, not gut feel.

What’s included

  • Network modeling and center-of-gravity analysis
  • DC footprint optimization (add, consolidate, relocate)
  • Transportation lane and mode design
  • Inventory positioning and safety-stock strategy
  • Total landed cost and service-level scenarios

Outcomes

  • Lower total landed cost and shorter transit times
  • A network sized for where your demand actually is
  • Clear scenarios to guide capital and lease decisions

Frequently asked

Can you model a network without perfect data?

Yes. We work with the data you have, fill gaps with defensible assumptions, and clearly flag sensitivity so decisions are made with eyes open.

Do you recommend specific real-estate or 3PL providers?

We're vendor-neutral. We define the requirements and evaluate options objectively — we don't take referral fees from providers.
