 <全体構成>
 図1は、本実施形態に係る最安輸送ルート判断全体システム(以下「全体システム」とする)100の概要を示す図である。全体システム100は、サーバ30を中心に構成されており、サーバ30と、輸送車両10の端末、倉庫20の端末、売主80の端末、輸送会社82の端末、拠点管理者84の端末は、インターネットなどの図示しないネットワークによって相互にデータ通信可能に接続されている。このほか、買主の端末とデータ通信可能に接続されていてもよい。サーバ30は、単体のコンピュータであってよく、例えば、端末であってもよい。また、各構成がそれぞれ異なるコンピュータで実行されるコンピュータシステム(クラウド)であってよい。
<Overall configuration>
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an outline of the cheapest transportation route determination overall system (hereinafter referred to as “overall system”) 100 according to the present embodiment. The entire system 100 is configured around the server 30, and the server 30, the terminal of the transportation vehicle 10, the terminal of the warehouse 20, the terminal of the seller 80, the terminal of the transportation company 82, and the terminal of the base manager 84 are connected to the Internet. They are connected to each other so that they can communicate with each other by a network (not shown) such as. In addition, it may be connected to the buyer's terminal so that data communication is possible. The server 30 may be a single computer, for example, a terminal. Further, each configuration may be a computer system (cloud) executed by a different computer.
 サーバ30は、倉庫20から買主に向けて輸送中の商品の輸送情報12が、例えば、輸送車両10から送信されると、当該輸送情報12を受信することで、輸送情報12を取得する(ステップSA)。輸送情報12は、例えば、空輸、海運、陸運における輸送手段から、輸送中に提供される輸送情報であり、商品名、輸送数、輸送地域、輸送期日などを含むものである。輸送情報12は、輸送会社82から送信された伝票情報から把握してもよいが、輸送車両10の荷台の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を取得して把握してもよい。具体的には、輸送会社82の端末が受け付けた入力内容(伝票情報など)が送信され、当該入力内容を受信することで、サーバ30が輸送情報12を取得する。あるいは、輸送車両10の荷台の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を端末が取得して当該識別情報を送信し、識別情報をサーバ30が受信することで識別情報から輸送情報12を取得する。 When the transportation information 12 of the goods being transported from the warehouse 20 to the buyer is transmitted from the transportation vehicle 10, for example, the server 30 acquires the transportation information 12 by receiving the transportation information 12 (step). SA). The transportation information 12 is transportation information provided during transportation from, for example, a transportation means in air transportation, sea transportation, and land transportation, and includes a product name, a number of transportations, a transportation area, a transportation date, and the like. The transportation information 12 may be grasped from the slip information transmitted from the transportation company 82, or may be grasped by acquiring the identification information attached to the product on the loading platform of the transportation vehicle 10. Specifically, the input contents (slip information and the like) received by the terminal of the transportation company 82 are transmitted, and the server 30 acquires the transportation information 12 by receiving the input contents. Alternatively, the terminal acquires the identification information attached to the product on the loading platform of the transportation vehicle 10 and transmits the identification information, and the server 30 receives the identification information to acquire the transportation information 12 from the identification information.
 また、サーバ30は、倉庫に保管している商品の保管情報22が、倉庫20などから送信されると、当該保管情報22を受信することで、保管情報22を取得する(ステップSB)。保管情報22は、例えば、商品名や保管数を含む。保管情報22は、拠点管理者84から送信される伝票番号から把握してもよいが、倉庫20に保管中の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を取得して把握してもよい。具体的には、保管情報22は、拠点管理者84の端末が受け付けた入力内容(伝票番号など)が送信され、当該入力内容を受信することで、サーバ30が保管情報22を取得する。あるいは、倉庫20に保管中の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を端末が取得して当該識別情報を送信し、識別情報をサーバ30が受信することで識別情報から保管情報22を取得する。 Further, when the storage information 22 of the product stored in the warehouse is transmitted from the warehouse 20 or the like, the server 30 acquires the storage information 22 by receiving the storage information 22 (step SB). The storage information 22 includes, for example, a product name and the number of storages. The storage information 22 may be grasped from the slip number transmitted from the base manager 84, or may be grasped by acquiring the identification information attached to the product stored in the warehouse 20. Specifically, the storage information 22 is transmitted with input contents (such as a slip number) received by the terminal of the base manager 84, and the server 30 acquires the storage information 22 by receiving the input contents. Alternatively, the terminal acquires the identification information attached to the product stored in the warehouse 20 and transmits the identification information, and the server 30 receives the identification information to acquire the storage information 22 from the identification information.
 サーバ30は、取得された輸送情報12と保管情報22とを関連付けた関連データを学習して、商品の需給を予測する(ステップS1)。例えば、どの商品が、どの地域で、どの期日で、何個売れたか、などを学習して、月次単位の商品需給を予測するなどである。 The server 30 learns the related data in which the acquired transportation information 12 and the storage information 22 are associated with each other, and predicts the supply and demand of the product (step S1). For example, it is possible to predict the supply and demand of products on a monthly basis by learning which products were sold in which region, on what date, and how many units were sold.
 次に、サーバ30は、予測の結果に応じて、買主に向けて商品を効率的に輸送するための、拠点と期日と個数とを決定する(ステップS2)。例えば、1ヶ月後に沖縄で100個売れると予測し、かつ、現時点で沖縄拠点に在庫50個があって、1ヶ月後に在庫10個になると予測されれば、予め沖縄に近い拠点に3週間以内に90個を輸送しておく、すなわち、1ヶ月後の合計を100個にできればよい、という具合に決定する。 Next, the server 30 determines the base, the due date, and the number of goods for efficiently transporting the goods to the buyer according to the result of the prediction (step S2). For example, if it is predicted that 100 pieces will be sold in Okinawa in one month, and if the stock is currently 50 pieces in the Okinawa base and it is predicted that the stock will reach 10 pieces in one month, the base near Okinawa will be in stock within 3 weeks in advance. It is decided that 90 pieces should be transported to Okinawa, that is, the total number after one month should be 100 pieces.
 サーバ30は、決定された拠点と期日と個数とに応じて、最安料金の輸送ルートを判断する(ステップS3)。例えば、沖縄に3週間以内に100個を輸送するならば、飛行機ではなく、トラックでもなく、船を利用するのが最安であると判断するという具合である。 The server 30 determines the cheapest transportation route according to the determined base, date, and number (step S3). For example, if 100 pieces are to be transported to Okinawa within 3 weeks, it is judged that it is cheapest to use a ship, not an airplane or a truck.
 サーバ30は、判断した結果を、売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84などにネットワークを介して送信することで、判断結果を提供する(ステップS4)。そして、受信した売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末に、受信した判断結果を表示させることで確認させる。 The server 30 provides the judgment result by transmitting the judgment result to the seller 80, the transportation company 82, the base manager 84, etc. via the network (step S4). Then, the terminals of the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 that received the message are made to confirm by displaying the received determination result.
 なお、サーバ30は、景気情報も取得して、輸送情報と保管情報と景気情報とを関連付けた関連データを学習して、今後の需給を予測するようにしてもよい。景気情報とは、例えば、株価情報やアナリスト情報などであって、これらの景気情報の提供元から送信されたデータをサーバ30が受信することで、景気情報を取得する。 Note that the server 30 may also acquire economic information, learn related data that associates transportation information, storage information, and economic information, and predict future supply and demand. The economic information is, for example, stock price information, analyst information, etc., and the server 30 receives the data transmitted from the provider of the economic information to acquire the economic information.
 また、例外の発生率を考慮して、輸送数から販売数を推測して需給を予測してもよい。基本的には、販売されたら倉庫から輸送になるため、例外の発生率を考慮して輸送数から販売数を推測できる。あるいは、例外の発生率を考慮して、保管数から売れ残り数を推測して、需給を予測してもよい。基本的には、売れ残りは倉庫に保管されたままになるため、例外の発生率を考慮して保管数から売れ残り数を推測できる。 In addition, the supply and demand may be predicted by estimating the number of sales from the number of shipments in consideration of the occurrence rate of exceptions. Basically, once it is sold, it will be shipped from the warehouse, so the number of sales can be estimated from the number of shipments in consideration of the exception rate. Alternatively, the supply and demand may be predicted by estimating the number of unsold items from the number of stored items in consideration of the occurrence rate of exceptions. Basically, the unsold items are kept in the warehouse, so the number of unsold items can be estimated from the number of items stored in consideration of the exception rate.
 更に、サーバ30は、輸送手段の積載空き状況を取得して、最安料金の輸送ルートの判断に加えるようにしてもよい。輸送手段とは、例えば、トラック、飛行機、船、鉄道などである。積載空き状況は、輸送車両10や、輸送会社82から送信されたデータをサーバ30が受信することで取得される。このような積載空き状況を取得して判断に加味することで、例えば、混載した方が料金が安くなる、という具合に、より適切な最安料金の輸送ルート判断を行うことができる。 Further, the server 30 may acquire the loading / vacant status of the transportation means and add it to the determination of the cheapest transportation route. The means of transportation is, for example, a truck, an airplane, a ship, a railroad, or the like. The loading / vacant status is acquired by the server 30 receiving the data transmitted from the transport vehicle 10 and the transport company 82. By acquiring such a loading / vacant status and adding it to the judgment, it is possible to determine a more appropriate transportation route with the lowest charge, for example, the charge is cheaper when the loading is mixed.
 なお、このような最安料金の輸送ルートの判断は、需給の予測結果が変更される度に最新の情報に更新される。更新された最安料金の輸送ルートは、ネットワークを介して売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84に送信することで提供される。そして、更新された輸送ルートを受信した売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末に、更新された最安料金の輸送ルートを表示させることで確認させる。 The determination of the cheapest transportation route is updated with the latest information every time the supply and demand forecast result is changed. The updated lowest-priced transportation route is provided by transmitting to the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 via the network. Then, the terminals of the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 that have received the updated transportation route are made to confirm by displaying the updated transportation route at the lowest price.
 <サーバのハードウェア構成>
 次に、図2を参照して、サーバ30のハードウェア構成を説明する。サーバ30は、プロセッサ32、メモリ34、ストレージ36、通信部50を備え、これらは図示しないバスにより接続されている。プロセッサ32は、例えば、CPU(Central Processing Unit)により構成され、メモリ34に記憶された各種プログラムを読み出して実行することで、各種処理を行う。前記メモリ34は、プロセッサ32により実行させるプログラムを記憶するものであり、例えば、ROM(Read Only Memory)やRAM(Random Access Memory)により構成される。例えば、図3に示す各種手段が記憶されている。
<Server hardware configuration>
Next, the hardware configuration of the server 30 will be described with reference to FIG. The server 30 includes a processor 32, a memory 34, a storage 36, and a communication unit 50, which are connected by a bus (not shown). The processor 32 is composed of, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), and performs various processes by reading and executing various programs stored in the memory 34. The memory 34 stores a program to be executed by the processor 32, and is composed of, for example, a ROM (Read Only Memory) or a RAM (Random Access Memory).

The acquired data 38 includes transportation information 38A, storage information 38B, economic information 38C, loading / vacancy status 38D, and the like.
 通信部50は、ネットワークを介して、輸送車両10や輸送会社82の端末から送信された輸送情報12を受信して取得し、倉庫20や拠点管理者84の端末から送信された保管情報22を受信して取得するものである。むろん、必要に応じて、他の提供元から送信される他の情報(例えば、景気情報や積載空き状況など)を受信して取得してもよい。 The communication unit 50 receives and acquires the transportation information 12 transmitted from the terminals of the transportation vehicle 10 and the transportation company 82 via the network, and receives the storage information 22 transmitted from the terminals of the warehouse 20 and the base manager 84. It is received and acquired. Of course, if necessary, other information transmitted from other providers (for example, economic information, loading availability, etc.) may be received and acquired.
 <サーバの機能構成>
 次に、図3を参照して、サーバ30の機能構成を説明する。サーバ30は、取得手段60と、予測手段62と、決定手段64と、判断手段66と、提供手段68と、更新手段70を備えている。
<Server function configuration>
Next, the functional configuration of the server 30 will be described with reference to FIG. The server 30 includes an acquisition means 60, a prediction means 62, a determination means 64, a determination means 66, a provision means 68, and an update means 70.
 取得手段60は、倉庫から買主に向けて輸送中の商品の輸送情報12や、倉庫に保管している当該商品の保管情報22を取得するものである。取得手段60は、例えば、輸送車両10や輸送会社82から送信された輸送情報12を受信することで取得する。輸送情報12は、例えば、商品名、輸送数、輸送地域、輸送期日などを含むものである。輸送情報12は、輸送会社82から送信され伝票情報から把握してもよいが、輸送車両10の荷台の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を取得して把握してもよい。具体的には、輸送会社82の端末が受け付けた入力内容(伝票情報など)が送信され、当該入力内容を受信することで、サーバ30が輸送情報12を取得する。あるいは、輸送車両10の荷台の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を端末が取得して当該識別情報を送信し、識別情報をサーバ30が受信することで識別情報から輸送情報12を取得する。取得した輸送情報12は、ストレージ36の取得データ38に輸送情報38Aとして記憶される。 The acquisition means 60 acquires the transportation information 12 of the product being transported from the warehouse to the buyer and the storage information 22 of the product stored in the warehouse. The acquisition means 60 acquires, for example, by receiving the transportation information 12 transmitted from the transportation vehicle 10 or the transportation company 82. The transportation information 12 includes, for example, a product name, the number of transportations, a transportation area, a transportation date, and the like. The transportation information 12 may be transmitted from the transportation company 82 and grasped from the slip information, or may be grasped by acquiring the identification information attached to the product on the loading platform of the transportation vehicle 10. Specifically, the input contents (slip information and the like) received by the terminal of the transportation company 82 are transmitted, and the server 30 acquires the transportation information 12 by receiving the input contents. Alternatively, the terminal acquires the identification information attached to the product on the loading platform of the transportation vehicle 10 and transmits the identification information, and the server 30 receives the identification information to acquire the transportation information 12 from the identification information. The acquired transportation information 12 is stored as transportation information 38A in the acquired data 38 of the storage 36.
 また、取得手段60は、倉庫に保管している商品の保管情報22が、倉庫20などから送信されると、当該保管情報22を受信することで、保管情報22を取得する。保管情報22は、例えば、商品名や保管数を含む。保管情報22は、拠点管理者84から送信される伝票番号から把握してもよいが、倉庫20に保管中の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を取得して把握してもよい。具体的には、保管情報22は、拠点管理者84の端末が受け付けた入力内容(伝票番号など)が送信され、当該入力内容を受信することで、サーバ30が保管情報22を取得する。あるいは、倉庫20に保管中の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を端末が取得して当該識別情報を送信し、識別情報をサーバ30が受信することで識別情報から保管情報22を取得する。 Further, when the storage information 22 of the product stored in the warehouse is transmitted from the warehouse 20 or the like, the acquisition means 60 acquires the storage information 22 by receiving the storage information 22. The storage information 22 includes, for example, a product name and the number of storages. The storage information 22 may be grasped from the slip number transmitted from the base manager 84, or may be grasped by acquiring the identification information attached to the product stored in the warehouse 20. Specifically, the storage information 22 is transmitted with input contents (such as a slip number) received by the terminal of the base manager 84, and the server 30 acquires the storage information 22 by receiving the input contents. Alternatively, the terminal acquires the identification information attached to the product stored in the warehouse 20 and transmits the identification information, and the server 30 receives the identification information to acquire the storage information 22 from the identification information.
 このほか、取得手段60は、景気情報を取得してもよい。景気情報とは、例えば、株価情報やアナリスト情報などであって、これらの景気情報の提供元から送信されたデータを受信し、景気情報を取得する。取得した景気情報は、ストレージ36の取得データ38に、景気情報38Cとして記憶される。 In addition, the acquisition means 60 may acquire economic information. The business information is, for example, stock price information, analyst information, etc., and receives data transmitted from a provider of these business information to acquire business information. The acquired economic information is stored as the economic information 38C in the acquired data 38 of the storage 36.
 さらに、取得手段60は、輸送手段の積載空き状況を取得してもよい。輸送手段とは、例えば、トラック、飛行機、船、鉄道などである。積載空き状況は、輸送車両10や輸送会社82の端末から送信されたデータを受信することで取得される。取得した積載空き状況は、ストレージ36の取得データ38に積載空き状況38Dとして記憶される。 Further, the acquisition means 60 may acquire the loading / vacant status of the transportation means. The means of transportation is, for example, a truck, an airplane, a ship, a railroad, or the like. The loading vacancy status is acquired by receiving data transmitted from the terminals of the transportation vehicle 10 and the transportation company 82. The acquired loading / vacant status is stored in the acquired data 38 of the storage 36 as the loading / vacant status 38D.
 予測手段62は、取得手段60によって取得された輸送情報38Aと保管情報38Bとを関連付けた関連データ40を学習して、商品の需給を予測するものである。例えば、どの商品が、どの地域で、どの期日で、何個売れたか、などを学習して、月次単位の商品需給を予測する。また、取得手段60によって景気情報を取得した場合には、輸送情報と保管情報と景気情報とを関連付けた関連データ40を学習して、今後の需給を予測するようにしてもよい。予測手段62によって生成された予測データ42は、ストレージ36に記憶される。 The prediction means 62 predicts the supply and demand of goods by learning the related data 40 that associates the transportation information 38A and the storage information 38B acquired by the acquisition means 60. For example, it is possible to predict the supply and demand of products on a monthly basis by learning which products were sold in which region, on what date, and how many units were sold. Further, when the economic information is acquired by the acquisition means 60, the related data 40 in which the transportation information, the storage information, and the economic information are associated with each other may be learned to predict the future supply and demand. The prediction data 42 generated by the prediction means 62 is stored in the storage 36.
 また、予測手段62は、例外の発生率を考慮して、輸送数から販売数を推測して需給を予測してもよい。基本的には、販売されたら倉庫から輸送になるため、例外の発生率を考慮して輸送数から販売数を推測できる。あるいは、予測手段62は、例外の発生率を考慮して、保管数から売れ残り数を推測して、需給を予測してもよい。基本的には、売れ残りは倉庫に保管されたままになるため、例外の発生率を考慮して保管数から売れ残り数を推測できる。 Further, the forecasting means 62 may predict the supply and demand by estimating the number of sales from the number of transportations in consideration of the occurrence rate of exceptions. Basically, once it is sold, it will be shipped from the warehouse, so the number of sales can be estimated from the number of shipments in consideration of the exception rate. Alternatively, the forecasting means 62 may predict the supply and demand by estimating the number of unsold items from the number of stored items in consideration of the occurrence rate of exceptions. Basically, the unsold items are kept in the warehouse, so the number of unsold items can be estimated from the number of items stored in consideration of the exception rate.
 決定手段64は、前記予測手段62により得られた予測の結果に応じて、買主に向けて商品を効率的に輸送するための、拠点と期日と個数とを決定するものである。例えば、1ヶ月後に沖縄で100個売れると予測し、かつ、現時点で沖縄拠点に在庫50個があって、1ヶ月後に在庫10個になると予測されれば、予め沖縄に近い拠点に3週間以内に90個を輸送しておく、すなわち、1ヶ月後の合計を100個にできればよい、という具合である。決定手段64により生成された決定データ44は、ストレージ36に記憶される。 The determination means 64 determines the base, the date, and the number of goods for efficiently transporting the goods to the buyer according to the result of the prediction obtained by the prediction means 62. For example, if it is predicted that 100 pieces will be sold in Okinawa in one month, and if the stock is currently 50 pieces in the Okinawa base and it is predicted that the stock will reach 10 pieces in one month, the base near Okinawa will be in stock within 3 weeks in advance. 90 pieces should be transported to Okinawa, that is, the total number after one month should be 100 pieces. The determination data 44 generated by the determination means 64 is stored in the storage 36.
 判断手段66は、前記決定手段64によって決定された拠点と期日と個数とに応じて、最安料金の輸送ルートを判断するものである。例えば、沖縄に3週間以内に100個を輸送するならば、飛行機ではなく、トラックでもなく、船を利用するのが最安であると判断するという具合である。 The determination means 66 determines the cheapest transportation route according to the base, the date, and the number of units determined by the determination means 64. For example, if 100 pieces are to be transported to Okinawa within 3 weeks, it is judged that it is cheapest to use a ship, not an airplane or a truck.
 また、判断手段66は、前記取得手段60によって輸送手段の積載空き状況38Dを取得した場合には、積載空き状況38Dを最安料金の輸送ルートの判断に加えるようにしてもよい。積載空き状況38Dを取得して判断に加味することで、例えば、混載した方が料金が安くなる、という具合に、より適切な最安料金の輸送ルート判断を行うことができる。判断手段66により生成された最安料金の輸送ルート46は、ストレージ36に記憶される。 Further, when the determination means 66 acquires the loading / vacant status 38D of the transportation means by the acquisition means 60, the determining means 66 may add the loading / vacant status 38D to the determination of the cheapest transportation route. By acquiring the loading / vacant status 38D and adding it to the judgment, it is possible to determine a more appropriate transportation route with the lowest charge, for example, the charge is cheaper when the loading is mixed. The cheapest transportation route 46 generated by the determination means 66 is stored in the storage 36.
 提供手段68は、判断手段66により判断された最安料金の輸送ルート46を、売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84などの端末にネットワークを介して送信することで、判断結果を提供するものである。判断結果を受信した売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末に、受信した判断結果を表示させることで確認させる。後述する更新手段70によって、最安料金の輸送ルートが更新された場合にも、同様に判断結果を提供する。 The providing means 68 provides the judgment result by transmitting the cheapest transportation route 46 determined by the judgment means 66 to terminals such as the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 via the network. It is a thing. The terminal of the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 that received the judgment result is made to confirm by displaying the received judgment result. Even when the cheapest transportation route is updated by the update means 70 described later, the determination result is similarly provided.
 更新手段70は、前記予測手段62による需給の予測結果が変更される度に、最安料金の輸送ルートの判断を更新するものである。更新された最安料金の輸送ルートは、前記提供手段68によって、ネットワークを介して売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末に送信することで提供される。そして、更新された輸送ルートを受信した売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末に、更新された最安料金の輸送ルートを表示させることで確認させる。 The updating means 70 updates the determination of the cheapest transportation route every time the supply and demand forecast result by the forecasting means 62 is changed. The updated cheapest transportation route is provided by the providing means 68 by transmitting to the terminals of the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 via the network.

 <最安輸送ルート判断処理>
 次に、本全体システム100の最安輸送ルート判断処理の一例について、図4を参照して説明する。図4は、本実施形態の最安輸送ルート判断処理の一例を示すフローチャートである。なお、サーバ30と、輸送車両10、倉庫20、売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末は、インターネットなどを含むネットワークによって互いにデータ通信可能に接続されている。
<Cheapest transportation route judgment processing>
Next, an example of the cheapest transportation route determination process of the entire system 100 will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an example of the cheapest transportation route determination process of the present embodiment. The server 30, the transport vehicle 10, the warehouse 20, the seller 80, the transport company 82, and the terminals of the base manager 84 are connected to each other via a network including the Internet and the like so that data can communicate with each other.
 サーバ30の取得手段60は、倉庫から買主に向けて輸送中の商品の輸送情報12が、輸送車両10から送信されると、当該輸送情報12を受信することで、輸送情報12を取得するとともに、倉庫に保管している商品の保管情報22が、倉庫20などから送信されると、当該保管情報22を受信することで、保管情報22を取得する(ステップS10)。 When the transportation information 12 of the goods being transported from the warehouse to the buyer is transmitted from the transportation vehicle 10, the acquisition means 60 of the server 30 receives the transportation information 12 to acquire the transportation information 12 and at the same time. When the storage information 22 of the product stored in the warehouse is transmitted from the warehouse 20 or the like, the storage information 22 is acquired by receiving the storage information 22 (step S10).
 輸送情報12は、例えば、商品名、輸送数、輸送地域、輸送期日などを含むものである。輸送情報12は、輸送会社82から送信され伝票情報から把握してもよいが、輸送車両10の荷台の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を取得して把握してもよい。具体的には、輸送会社82の端末が受け付けた入力内容(伝票情報など)が送信され、当該入力内容を受信することで、サーバ30が輸送情報12を取得する。あるいは、輸送車両10の荷台の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を端末が取得して当該識別情報を送信し、識別情報をサーバ30が受信することで識別情報から輸送情報12を取得する。取得された輸送情報は、ストレージ36の取得データ38に、輸送情報38Aとして記憶される。 The transportation information 12 includes, for example, a product name, the number of transportations, a transportation area, a transportation date, and the like. The transportation information 12 may be transmitted from the transportation company 82 and grasped from the slip information, or may be grasped by acquiring the identification information attached to the product on the loading platform of the transportation vehicle 10. Specifically, the input contents (slip information and the like) received by the terminal of the transportation company 82 are transmitted, and the server 30 acquires the transportation information 12 by receiving the input contents. Alternatively, the terminal acquires the identification information attached to the product on the loading platform of the transportation vehicle 10 and transmits the identification information, and the server 30 receives the identification information to acquire the transportation information 12 from the identification information. The acquired transportation information is stored as transportation information 38A in the acquired data 38 of the storage 36.
 保管情報22は、例えば、商品名や保管数を含む。保管情報22は、例えば、拠点管理者84から送信される伝票番号から把握してもよいが、倉庫20に保管中の商品の取り付けられた識別情報を取得して把握してもよい。具体的には、保管情報22は、拠点管理者84の端末が受け付けた入力内容(伝票番号など)が送信され、当該入力内容を受信することで、サーバ30が保管情報22を取得する。あるいは、倉庫20に保管中の商品に取り付けられた識別情報を端末が取得して当該識別情報を送信し、識別情報をサーバ30が受信することで識別情報から保管情報22を取得する。取得された保管情報は、ストレージ36の取得データ38に、保管情報38Bとして記憶される。 The storage information 22 includes, for example, a product name and the number of storages. The storage information 22 may be grasped from, for example, the slip number transmitted from the base manager 84, or may be grasped by acquiring the identification information attached to the product stored in the warehouse 20. Specifically, the storage information 22 is transmitted with input contents (such as a slip number) received by the terminal of the base manager 84, and the server 30 acquires the storage information 22 by receiving the input contents. Alternatively, the terminal acquires the identification information attached to the product stored in the warehouse 20 and transmits the identification information, and the server 30 receives the identification information to acquire the storage information 22 from the identification information. The acquired storage information is stored as storage information 38B in the acquisition data 38 of the storage 36.
 次に、サーバ30の予測手段62は、取得された輸送情報38Aと保管情報38Bとを関連付けた関連データ40を学習して、商品の需給を予測する(ステップS12)。例えば、どの商品が、どの地域で、どの期日で、何個売れたか、などを学習して、月次単位の商品需給を予測するなどである。予測手段62により生成された予測データ42は、ストレージ36に記憶される。 Next, the prediction means 62 of the server 30 learns the related data 40 that associates the acquired transportation information 38A and the storage information 38B, and predicts the supply and demand of the product (step S12). For example, it is possible to predict the supply and demand of products on a monthly basis by learning which products were sold in which region, on what date, and how many units were sold. The prediction data 42 generated by the prediction means 62 is stored in the storage 36.
 次に、サーバ30の決定手段64は、予測の結果に応じて、買主に向けて商品を効率的に輸送するための、拠点と期日と個数とを決定する(ステップS14)。例えば、1ヶ月後に沖縄で100個売れると予測し、かつ、現時点で沖縄拠点に在庫50個があって、1ヶ月後に在庫10個になると予測されれば、予め沖縄に近い拠点に3週間以内に90個を輸送しておく、すなわち、1ヶ月後の合計を100個にできればよい、という具合に決定する。決定手段64により生成された決定データ44は、ストレージ36に記憶される。 Next, the determination means 64 of the server 30 determines the base, the due date, and the number of products in order to efficiently transport the product to the buyer according to the result of the prediction (step S14). For example, if it is predicted that 100 pieces will be sold in Okinawa in one month, and if the stock is currently 50 pieces in the Okinawa base and it is predicted that the stock will reach 10 pieces in one month, the base near Okinawa will be in stock within 3 weeks in advance. It is decided that 90 pieces should be transported to Okinawa, that is, the total number after one month should be 100 pieces. The determination data 44 generated by the determination means 64 is stored in the storage 36.
 サーバ30の判断手段66は、決定された拠点と期日と個数とに応じて、最安料金の輸送ルートを判断する(ステップS16)。例えば、沖縄に3週間以内に100個を輸送するならば、飛行機ではなく、トラックでもなく、船を利用するのが最安であると判断するという具合である。判断手段66により判断された最安料金の輸送ルート46は、ストレージ36に記憶される。 The determination means 66 of the server 30 determines the cheapest transportation route according to the determined base, date, and number (step S16). For example, if 100 pieces are to be transported to Okinawa within 3 weeks, it is judged that it is cheapest to use a ship, not an airplane or a truck. The cheapest transportation route 46 determined by the determination means 66 is stored in the storage 36.
 サーバ30の提供手段68は、判断手段66により判断された最安料金の輸送ルート46を、売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84などにネットワークを介して送信することで、判断結果を提供する(ステップS18)。そして、受信した判断結果を、売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末に表示させることで確認させる。 The providing means 68 of the server 30 provides the judgment result by transmitting the cheapest transportation route 46 determined by the judgment means 66 to the seller 80, the transportation company 82, the base manager 84, etc. via the network. (Step S18). Then, the received determination result is confirmed by displaying it on the terminals of the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84.
 なお、上述した実施形態において、サーバ30の取得手段60は、景気情報も取得して、取得した輸送情報38Aと保管情報38Bと景気情報38Cとを関連付けた関連データ40を学習して、今後の需給を予測するようにしてもよい。景気情報とは、例えば、株価情報やアナリスト情報などであって、これらの景気情報の提供元から送信されたデータを受信し、景気情報を取得する。取得した景気情報は、ストレージ36に景気情報38Cとして記憶される。 In the above-described embodiment, the acquisition means 60 of the server 30 also acquires economic information and learns the related data 40 in which the acquired transportation information 38A, the storage information 38B, and the economic information 38C are associated with each other. You may try to forecast the supply and demand. The business information is, for example, stock price information, analyst information, etc., and receives data transmitted from a provider of these business information to acquire business information. The acquired economic information is stored in the storage 36 as the economic information 38C.
 また、上述した実施形態において、サーバ30の予測手段62は、例外の発生率を考慮して、輸送数から販売数を推測して需給を予測してもよい。基本的には、販売されたら倉庫から輸送になるため、例外の発生率を考慮して輸送数から販売数を推測できる。あるいは、予測手段62は、例外の発生率を考慮して、保管数から売れ残り数を推測して、需給を予測してもよい。基本的には、売れ残りは倉庫に保管されたままになるため、例外の発生率を考慮して保管数から売れ残り数を推測できる。 Further, in the above-described embodiment, the prediction means 62 of the server 30 may predict the supply and demand by estimating the number of sales from the number of transportations in consideration of the occurrence rate of exceptions. Basically, once it is sold, it will be shipped from the warehouse, so the number of sales can be estimated from the number of shipments in consideration of the exception rate. Alternatively, the forecasting means 62 may predict the supply and demand by estimating the number of unsold items from the number of stored items in consideration of the occurrence rate of exceptions. Basically, the unsold items are kept in the warehouse, so the number of unsold items can be estimated from the number of items stored in consideration of the exception rate.
 更に、上述した実施形態において、サーバ30の取得手段60は、輸送手段の積載空き状況38Dを取得して、最安料金の輸送ルートの判断に加えるようにしてもよい。輸送手段とは、例えば、トラック、飛行機、船、鉄道などである。積載空き状況は、輸送手段や、輸送会社82の端末から送信されたデータを受信することで取得され、ストレージ36に積載空き状況38Dとして記憶される。積載空き状況38Dを取得して判断に加味することで、例えば、混載した方が料金が安くなる、という具合に、より適切な最安料金の輸送ルート判断を行うことができる。 Further, in the above-described embodiment, the acquisition means 60 of the server 30 may acquire the loading / vacant status 38D of the transportation means and add it to the determination of the cheapest transportation route. The means of transportation is, for example, a truck, an airplane, a ship, a railroad, or the like. The loading / vacant status is acquired by receiving data transmitted from the transportation means or the terminal of the transportation company 82, and is stored in the storage 36 as the loading / vacant status 38D. By acquiring the loading / vacant status 38D and adding it to the judgment, it is possible to determine a more appropriate transportation route with the lowest charge, for example, the charge is cheaper when the loading is mixed.
 また、上述した最安料金の輸送ルートの判断は、サーバ30の更新手段70により、需給の予測結果が変更される度に最新の情報に更新され、ストレージ36に記憶される。更新された最安料金の輸送ルートは、ネットワークを介して売主、80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84に送信することで、提供される。更新された輸送ルートを受信した売主80、輸送会社82、拠点管理者84の端末に、更新された最安料金の輸送ルートを表示させることで確認させる。 Further, the determination of the cheapest transportation route described above is updated to the latest information every time the supply and demand forecast result is changed by the update means 70 of the server 30, and is stored in the storage 36. The updated lowest-priced transportation route is provided by transmitting to the seller, 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 via the network. The terminal of the seller 80, the transportation company 82, and the base manager 84 that received the updated transportation route is made to confirm by displaying the updated transportation route with the lowest price.
