In this paper the location of the warehouse of finished products and technical inspection post in the new space of a section for an industrial enterprise, intended for the processing of new products is proposed. This will be done according to several conditions imposed by the companyʼs management. This was done using the Facility Location and Layout module of the WinQSB program, using two problem types: Facility Location and Functional Layout. The first type of problem was used for the location of the two new production units, and the second for the verification, using the CRAFT method, of the spatial location of the production units.
