The paper also assesses the possibility of compiling a multi-criteria function for enterprise logistics, that beside the costs takes into account also other aspects as rail transport availability, time for loading and unloading, shipping time or environmental impacts.https://doi.org/10.1515/eng-2019-0044transport modedecision-makingdelivery coststhreshold distance
