Abstract
An important goal in schedule production orders through a manufacturing facility is to assure that the work is completed as close as possible to its due date. Work that is late creates downstream delays, while early completion can be detrimental if storage space is limited. Production planning and control manufacturing is becoming more difficult as family products increase and quantity decreases. This paper presents an ongoing information system development that aims the production planning of special test tables equipment for automobile components manufacturers. The simulated based information system will be used to support planning and schedule activities; to compare and analyze the impact of planning rescheduling; to forecast the production completion date; to detect bottlenecks and to evaluate machines performance.

Configuring consumer-demand driven supply networks: Example from the made-to-measure fashion sector

Publication

Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to present a concept for configuring dynamic and ready-to-implement supply network structures. This concept is based on a (real) business case from the fashion industry where order, logistics and production management processes are entirely consumer-driven. Only after the consumer has configured and customised his made-to-measure fashion product and placed his order, the actual constellation of partners in the supply network is determined and business processes initiated. The focus of the paper is on the methodological approach of defining and modelling the underlying business model. © 2004 by Springer Science+Business Media New York.
