Abstract

The food delivery industry in India is growing rapidly with the increasing availability of technology. In this research paper, we aimed at finding out the application of operational research in the food delivery industry. It has always been a known fact that humans are known to make mistakes if work is done without the help of any scientific tool. With detailed research in this industry, it came to our knowledge that the processes in various organizations have logistical flaws. This made us want to connect the concept of operations research to the food delivery industry, so as to maximize the results with minimum resources or costs. We have provided an analysis of how operations research can be used in this industry. Our research has been supported by real-life implications and it was proven to us that operations research techniques can help food delivery platforms in making decisions about how they should go about with their day to day operations as efficiently as possible at the minimum cost.
