# Distribution Cost Optimizer

**Folder:** Supply Chain & Logistics / Distribution Manager / Cost Savings Analyst

## What does it do?

Distribution cost hides savings in routing, mode, network design, and carrier mix.

This agent hunts them: it analyzes distribution spend for savings, quantifies each, and ranks them — so cost-per-delivery comes down without hurting service.

## Benefits

- Distribution savings surfaced.
- Routing and carrier-mix opportunities found.
- Quantified and ranked.
