First, read the assigned case that describes how Colinx practices coopetition through its supply chain operation.$$ One thing that CoLinx does is that it serves as a shared distribution and logistics hub for $4$ competing manufacturers in the Gear Bearing and Power Transmission Equipment industry.$$ Uncorrelated Demand and related data profiles for each of three Bearing and Power transmission equipment products at the Crossville $($TN$)$ Distribution Center are listed below.$$ Any bearing has a fixed cost per shipment $($common order cost$)$ of $$3,500$ to any one of three wholesale distributors.$$ Show the cost savings that could be achieved if packaging and shipping services could be aggregated $($joint ordered$)$ for the three products listed below if the company spends $$100,000$ per year $($every $12$ months$)$ to stage the facility for this function.$$ Should CoLinx proceed with the plan to perform this type of service based on your analysis?$$ Please report lot sizes, order frequency $($flow time$),$ and costs for both independent ordering and joint ordering to justify your analysis.
