The dealerships are strategically determined to have a delivery several times a week (perhaps even Daily).

The client works out where they will be delivering to each dealership and at what time, based on resources.

They also work out the collection time each day from the stock holding location (customer warehouse) to closest DHL hub.

This is saved onto the fixed schedule and the dealerships informed of their scheduled deliveries.
