Materials flow control in hybrid make-to-stock/make-to-order manufacturing [PDF]
, 2015 Today’s company competiveness is favoured by product customisation and fast delivery. A strategy to meet this challenge is to manufacture standard items to stock for product customisation. This configures a hybrid environment of make-to-stock and make-to-

Revenue management in single-stage CONWIP production systems [PDF]
International Journal of Production Research, 2008 We study a joint admission/inventory control problem for a manufacturing system producing one product to meet random demand. The system employs a constant work- in-process policy (CONWIP) whereby the total inventory of raw material and finished items is kept constant, and accepts orders only as long as the backlog is below a certain level.

Synchro-push: A new production control paradigm [PDF]
, 2016 The paper aims at proposing a new production control paradigm, the Synchro-push, that offers a step forward with respect to the traditional push and pull production paradigms as for plant re-configurability power and quick reaction to demand changes: in ...

Customized Pull Systems for Single-Product Flow Lines [PDF]
Traditionally pull production systems are managed through classic control systems such as Kanban, Conwip, or Base stock, but this paper proposes ‘customized’ pull control. Customization means that a given production line is managed through a pull control

Optimization Versus Robustness in Simulation: A Practical Methodology, With a Production-Management Case-Study [PDF]
Whereas Operations Research has always paid much attention to optimization, practitioners judge the robustness of the 'optimum' solution to be of greater importance.Therefore this paper proposes a practical methodology that is a stagewise combination of ...

Short-Term Robustness of Production Management Systems: New Methodology [PDF]
This paper investigates the short-term robustness of production planning and control systems. This robustness is defined here as the systems ability to maintain short-term service probabilities (i.e., the probability that the fill rate remains within a ...
