Abstract

One of the main challenges during a disaster is an effective search and rescue efforts that include mobilizing a large number of rescuers with the objective of getting the right persons to the right place at the right time. This imposes a formidable challenge to logistic management especially in flood disaster due to the wide-ranging areas and a large number of people affected. The urgency of getting supports in terms of rescue personnel and volunteers, food, transportation for evacuation and flood relief effort is a race against time where quick and correct decisions are needed while considering all the constraints emerge due to the flood. Consequently, the pressure to the decision maker to make the right decision is often cloud with emotions and thus, no longer objective. This research proposes a decision-making framework to aid in allocating logistic and dynamic management to optimize the available resources during flood crisis that include transport ranking and schedule developed by using excel visual basic application. The applicability of framework is illustrated through a case study. © IEOM Society International. © IEOM Society International.
