The optimization transportation models in the oil palm industry aim to reduce costs by logistics operations related to vehicle allocation during collection and transportation phases of fresh fruit bunches (FFB). Here we propose two logistic models pertinent to transportation management in the agro-industry of palm oil in Colombia. The first one describes a general operation and guarantees the delivery of the entire collection from collection centers internal to external collection locations and from the latter to a manufacturing plant. The second one proposes the single sourcing to ensure that a fruit batch could be sent to only one external collection in order to facilitate actions, such as production inspection and quality control of batches. The importance of this model generates several possibilities to evaluate scenarios where they are faced daily by actors involved in this sector, seeking coordination and integration mechanisms. This model also changes the operating conditions and thus constitutes a basic tool to measure technical and economic implications of changes in the way a transportation system operates. Finally, we present findings, conclusions and recommendations of this work.
