The transition from synchronous supplies to synchronous production represent a possible alternative to the neighbourhood logistics configurations, especially in the automotive industry. It permits to gain, on certain conditions, efficiency and more freedom of manoeuvre faced with a strong...

This article focuses on the monitoring of a supply chain dedicated to the mass production of strongly diversified products. In particular we are interested in the part of this chain that contributes to the production of a set of alternative modules assembled on a work station of one or several...

L'ouvrage composé de trois parties revient sur la stratégie d'entreprise, les changements organisationnels et les mutations de la culture d'entreprise. Chaque chapitres s'organise en trois étapes, les fondamentaux, les avancées et les études de cas.

In a supply chain designed for the production of goods of wide variety, the production schedule creates an ordered list of all the alternate components that will be mounted on a same post of the chain. The supply of these components by the supplier may induce transportation-related constraints....

Le passage de l'approvisionnement synchrone à la production synchrone constitue une alternative aux configurations logistiques de proximité souvent utilisées dans les chaînes logistiques orientées vers la production de masse de produits fortement diversifiés et devant satisfaire très...

In an upstream supply chain dedicated to the mass production of customized products, many sources of production and supply instability can be identified: the level and structure of the production of the final assembly line, the variability of lead times, the quality issues, packaging and loading...

This article focuses on the monitoring of a supply chain dedicated to a mass production of strongly diversified products and more particularly in the part of this chain which contributes to the production of a set of alternate modules assembled on a work station of the assembly line. The...

This article analyzes capacity determinants of a production system on the short term, from a work station to a production unit. This capacity, defined on a period, is a complex random variable. Its variance depends on factors, which don’t play in an additive manner. These factors are linked to...

Dans une chaîne logistique composée d’une ligne d’assemblage (client industriel), dédiée à une production de masse de produits diversifiés et d’une unité de production (fournisseur), approvisionnant un poste de cette ligne en composants alternatifs, se pose la question du choix de...

The synchronization of the production of a manufacturing supplier, who makes alternate components assembled on his industrial customer’s work station with this client’s production specialized in mass production of highly diversified products, must take into account the improvement of their...
