Track: Production Planning and Control

Abstract

Supply chains from automotive industry are very complex. Reason for its complexity becomes from a great number of partners, from suppliers (inbound supply chain from automotive industry include a huge number of supplier tiers), producers, distributors to retailers and customers, and also from great number of different components that are necessery for final product. This level of complexity is present also in supply chains from electronic industry, aviation industry etc. Logistics management represent imperative for efficient and effective managing of automotive industry, as a very complex area. Each partner in supply chain has a task to integrate all aspects of logistics: Internal logistics with focus on networking procurement, transportation, inventory control with information systems, planning, production, inspection, and delivery of final product in one process. And external logistics with focus on networking internal operations with sub-suppliers, sales, warehouse management, distribution networks, service providers, and customers

The challenge of this paper is to create new concepts and tools of monitoring to develop production on sequencing, remove 3PL from supply chain and optimizing space and stock value (Handling & warehouse cost) in fact the product cost to be optimized.

The aim axis will be following this chronologic:

• Theoretical study of the market expectation: Literature review
• Research methodology: Analyzing of Sample and define of hypotheses
• Research results and discussion
