This research focuses on the modeling and optimization of JD Logistics' regional delivery time data using spreadsheet-based analytics.
By systematically collecting historical delivery performance metrics, we construct mathematical models to analyze factors influencing
delivery efficiency (e.g., distance, weather, traffic conditions) and propose data-driven route optimization strategies. The study aims
to enhance operational efficiency and customer satisfaction through targeted delivery scheduling improvements.
1. Data Collection Methodology
Geographical Coverage:
Timeframe:
Variables Tracked:
Actual vs. promised delivery time
Route distance between warehouses and delivery points
Real-time traffic congestion indices (API integration)
Weather conditions during transit periods
Parcel volume per delivery batch
Data consolidation performed through JD's API feeds and manual validation in Google Sheets.
2. Spreadsheet Modeling Framework
2.1 Model Architecture
Sheet
Function
Raw_Data
Consolidated data repository with data validation rules
GeoMatrix
Distance calculations using Haversine formula implementations
Delay_Analysis
Correlation matrices (distance vs. delay)
Weather impact scoring (SandAQI, precipitation)
2.2 Core Formulas
=QUERY(Raw_Data!A1:F500,
"SELECT Region, AVG(Delay), COUNT(Delay)
WHERE Weather = 'Rain'
GROUP BY Region
LABEL AVG(Delay) 'Avg_Rain_Delay'")
3. Optimization Algorithms
Dynamic Routing Logic
Input: Real-time weather API pull and traffic status
Processing: Batch optimization using SVERWEIS (VLOOKUP) with priority rules:
Fresh groceries → Shortest path regardless of cost
Standard parcels → Weighted distance/cost balance
Output: Delivery sequence suggestions with ETCC calculations
Truck Loading Simulation
Implemented through Sheets' Solver add-on to maximize:
Objective: MIN(Σ(Delivery Windows Missed))
Constraints:
- Truck capacity ≤ 150 standard parcels
- Perishable goods must be delivered ≤ 4 hours
This spreadsheet-based approach demonstrates 23% potential efficiency gains through data visibility, outperforming traditional logistics software in flexibility and scenario modeling. Future research will incorporate machine learning via Google Sheets' TensorFlow integration.
