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....

The synchronization of the production of a manufacturing supplier, who makes alternate components assembled on his industrial customer’s work station with this client’s production specialized in mass production of highly diversified products, must take into account the improvement of their...

Dans une chaîne logistique - amont orientée vers la production de masse de produits diversifiés, de nombreuses sources d’instabilité de la production et des approvisionnements existent : le niveau et la structure de la production de l’assemblage final, la variabilité des délais...

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...

This article focuses on the monitoring of a supply chain dedicated to a mass production of strongly diversified products and more particularly in the part of this chain which contributes to the production of a set of alternate modules assembled on a work station of the assembly line. The...

In an environment of mass customization where demand information can be placed in advance with sequencing orders, the question of the best use of this information arises in a supply chain. This situation led the authors to analyze the efficiency of current mechanisms of scheduling coordination...

Dans une chaîne logistique composée d’une ligne d’assemblage (client industriel), dédiée à une production de masse de produits diversifiés et d’une unité de production (fournisseur), approvisionnant un poste de cette ligne en composants alternatifs, se pose la question du choix de...
