At the highest level, performance of a distribution network should be evaluated along two dimensions:

1.Customer needs that are met

2.Cost of meeting customer needs

Thus, a firm must evaluate the impact on customer service and cost as it compares different distribution networkoptions. The customer needs that are met influence the company's revenues, which along with cost decide the profitabilityof the delivery network. Although customer service consists of many components, we focus on those measures that are influenced by the structure of the distribution network. These include:

*Response time

*Product variety

*Product availability
