A transport control device includes a state predictor that is machine-learned to output, for each candidate of a setting value of a parameter to control the operation of a transport system, state prediction information indicating a predicted state of the transport system associated with a second period after a first period, and a determinator that determines state prediction information associated with a prediction target period for each candidate of the setting value of the parameter, and determines the setting value of the parameter to be applied to the transport system in the prediction target period based on an evaluation result of the state prediction information for each candidate of the setting value of the parameter.
