A Weight & Balance system (WBS) is used to calculate the load capacity in logistics. Within a military environment, this is a critical part of the logistics planning. Calculating weight and balance requires comprehensive data in terms of size and volume for different types of cargo and transportation and can be a complex process, particularly in the military logistics field.
Using some of the latest technology, solutions to real challenges in W&B logistics can be found to optimize the system through automation and simulation. A logistics optimization system aims to accelerate military load planning, enable better CDM and ultimately increase potential mission success.
