An optimization model for strategic supply chain design under stochastic capacity disruptionsLuna Coronado, Jaime 10 October 2008 (has links)
This Record of Study contains the details of an optimization model developed for Shell Oil Co. This model will be used during the strategic design process of a supply chain for a new technology commercialization. Unlike traditional supply chain deterministic optimization, this model incorporates different levels of uncertainty at suppliers' nominal capacity. Because of the presence of uncertainty at the supply stage, the objective of this model is to define the best diversification and safety stock level allocated to each supplier, which minimize the total expected supply chain cost. We propose a Monte Carlo approach for scenario generation, a two-stage non-linear formulation and the Sample Average Approximation (SAA) procedure to solve the problem near optimality. We also propose a simple heuristic procedure to avoid the nonlinearity issue. The sampling and heuristic optimization procedures were implemented in a spreadsheet with a user's interface. The main result of this development is the analysis of the impact of diversification in strategic sourcing decisions, in the presence of stochastic supply disruptions.

Managing Supply Chain Risks in Fresh Food Items : A case study on Makro-Habib Pakistan Limited – A wholesales chain in PakistanMehmood, Waqas, Liaqat, Yasir, Iftikhar, Nauman, Raza, Syed Hassan January 2010 (has links)
Authors: Waqas Mehmood, Yasir Liaqat, Nauman Iftikhar, Raza Syed Hassan Tutor: Petra Andersson Examiner: Helena Forslund Title: Managing Supply Chain Risks in Fresh Food Items – a case study on Makro-Habib Pakistan Limited – a wholesales chain in Pakistan Background: In today’s era, businesses are facing various types of risks which can be legal/political, social, operational/technical, natural and economic in nature. For this purpose, companies need to have effective risk management process to mitigate these risks. Especially companies like Makro-Habib who heavily rely on effective and efficient supply chain can gain competitive advantage if they manage the risks within their supply chain network. Research Questions: RQ-1: What are the most significant supply chain risks in fresh food items at Makro-Habib? RQ-2: How can significant supply chain risks in fresh food items of Makro-Habib be mitigated through proposed action plan? Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to contribute to the knowledge on how to manage risks in the fresh food supply chain Method: The empirical data and the conclusions which are drawn from it are based on qualitative facts that are gathered through interviews and questionnaires. The results/conclusions drawn from responses of the interviews of fresh food section heads of Makro-Habib and the literature. This thesis is written from a positivistic perspective with a deductive approach. Conclusion: Various risk mitigation strategies at strategic, operational and visibility level are suggested like coordination, information sharing, training, monitoring to counter the most significant fresh food supply chain risks which are wrong ordering, contamination of products and FIFO (loose practice).

RFID : a catalyst for supply chain performanceLakshmanan, Alagendran January 2009 (has links)
THE ADVANTAGE OF RFID TECHNOLOGY IMPLEMENTATION IN A MANUFACTURING FIRM. THE TECHNOLOGY IMPLEMENTATION STREAM LINES THE LOSS OF INFORMATION FLOW WHEN THE PRODUCT MOVES ALONG THE DIFFERENT CHAIN MEMBERS. THE COMMON SHARING OF THE ASSOCIATED BENEFIT BRINGS HIGHER PROCESS EFFICEINCY , WHEN THE PRODUCT MOVES ALONG THE UPSTREAM AND DOWNSTREAM SUPPLY CHAIN FOR THE SELECTED PRODUCT. THE IMPLEMENTATION IS A CUSTOMISED SOLUTION FOR THE MANUFACTURING UNIT FOR ITS PRODUCT, THIS THESIS WILL ENABLE THE IMPLEMENTATORS THE VALUABLE IMPLEMENTATION PROCEDURES THAT ONE HAS TO FOLLOW TO TAKE RIGHT BENEFIT FROM THIS TECHNOLOGY.

Implementering av Neutrallager - En fallstudie inom Tooling Support Halmstad ABBekk, Stewe, Bertilsson, Anders, Olsson, Cecilia January 2007 (has links)
Demand has become increasingly difficult to forecast in today’s volatile markets. Being able to produce towards real demand is becoming vital for companies, since inventories of finished goods are expensive to maintain and because miscalculated products tie up capital that in the end is never repaid. More and more companies are using postponement strategies to delay the process of producing until real demand has become known. Tooling Support Halmstad is a company within the manufacturing industry, which has become aware of the benefits with postponement strategies for parts of their production. In the year of 2006 Tooling Support Halmstad implemented a neutral stock for taps, their largest product. The target was to reduce their lead time and capital tied up. The purpose of this report is to evaluate Tooling Support Halmstad’s achievements, regarding improvements of lead time and capital tied up, in effect of the implementation of a neutral stock. The neutral stock’s impact on Tooling Support Halmstad’s production and inventory strategy will be described in order to fully understand the most important factors when implementing a neutral stock. This study will not examine all factors arising from implementation of a neutral stock, since that would make it unreasonable extensive. The time periods examined in this report is the last quarter of 2005 and the first quarter of 2007. This has been done in order to compare the situation before the neutral stock with the situation after the implementation. This case study has used qualitative research methods. A small number of persons, from different parts of the organisation, have been interviewed in order to deeply evaluate this specific situation. The result shows that the implementation of a neutral stock has been beneficial for Tooling Support Halmstad. Their lead time has decreased drastically and their level of service towards the central warehouse has improved as well. It exist strong indications of a decrease in capital tied up, even though any specific values have not been possible to provide.
