L'adoption de la démarche Supply Chain Management (SCM), centrée sur la logistique, apparaît comme un outil de performance pour la firme, puisque son ambition affichée est de répondre au triple objectif d'amélioration des niveaux de service, de réduction des coûts et de création de...

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

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

Classical supply chain design relies on a hierarchical organization to store and distribute products over a given geographical area. Within this framework a shortage in a stock affects the whole downstream of the supply chain regardless of the inventory kept in others locations. Within the...

Le commerce en ligne de produits informatiques apparaît comme une activité en cours de structuration dans laquelle il est difficile de dégager des modèles d'affaires stables et d'en évaluer la performance. Les pratiques des sites de commerce électronique sont variées et plusieurs logiques...

Performance improvement in supply chains, taking into account customer demand in the tactical planning process is essential. It is more and more difficult for the customers to ensure a certain level of demand over a medium term horizon as their own customers ask them for personalisation and fast...

To improve the supply chains performance, taking into account the customer demand in the tactical planning process is essential. It is more and more difficult for the customers to insure a certain level of demand over a medium term period. Then it is necessary to develop methods and decision...

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 bullwhip effect (BWE) describes a phenomenon that involves the increasing amplification of demand variability along a supply chain (SC). The BWE has been a subject that has received continuous attention from researchers over the past 15 years and is a concern for SC managers because it is a...
