Highlights ► Original top-down approach for the strategic, tactical and operational planning. ► Original mixed integer programming (MILP) models for strategic planning and operational planning. ► Original heuristic approach for the operational planning and vehicle routing. ► Original decision support system (DSS), a software platform for supporting decisions making process on design, planning and management of a distribution logistic. ► An original case study. The obtained results by the application of the proposed models and platform have been discussed and compared for different problem settings.

    Abstract This paper presents an original top-down approach, made of original models and solving methods, and a decision support system (DSS) for the execution of the strategic planning, the tactical planning and the operational planning in a multi-echelon multi-stage multi-commodity and multi-period production, distribution and transportation system. The DSS is a software platform useful for the design, management and control of real instances. It can efficiently supports the decision making process of logistic managers and planners of large enterprises as multi-facilities companies and production–distribution networks. A significant case study is illustrated. The results obtained by the application of different problem settings are compared and discussed.
