L’article commence par une discussion sur le rôle du client dans le processus de conception de production de services. Les dimensions de la qualité perçue et de la satisfaction du client étant prises en compte, d’abord dans les études du marché ensuite dans la phase de conception et...

This paper presents an integer programming formulation for the sequencing problem in mixed-model assembly lines where the number of temporarily hired utility workers and the number of sequence-dependent setups are to be optimized simultaneously through a cost function. The resultant model offers...

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.

This article focuses on the calculation of the optimal stock-out risk for a component, which is used by alternative modules mounted on several assembly lines. The studied context is a supply chain dedicated to the mass production of highly diversified products, which is common in the automotive...

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...

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...
