This article focuses on the calculation of the optimal stock-out risk when resorting to emergency supplies is allowed. The studied context is a supply chain where several distant mixed-model assembly lines trigger the demand of a component used for assembly. When the cumulated lead time of a...

This article focuses on the monitoring of a supply chain dedicated to the mass production of strongly diversified products. Specifically, we are interested in the part of this chain that contributes to the production of a set of alternative modules assembled on a work station of one or several...

L’effet coût de fouet (ECF) correspond au phénomène d’amplification croissante de la variabilité de la demande en remontant le long de la chaîne logistique (CL). Il fait l’objet d’une attention soutenue par les chercheurs depuis une quinzaine d’années et préoccupe les...

This article focuses on the calculation of the optimal stock-out risk for a component, which is used by alternative modules mounted on several assembly lines. The studied context is a supply chain dedicated to the mass production of highly diversified products, which is common in the automotive...

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...

This article focuses on the monitoring of a supply chain dedicated to the mass production of strongly diversified products. In particular we are interested in the part of this chain that contributes to the production of a set of alternative modules assembled on a work station of one or several...

In this PhD dissertation, we investigated the way of exploiting the demand forecasts for the upstream flow management in a context of mass production of highly diverse products and of geographical dispersion of the production units. When the forecasts are poorly exploited, phenomena similar to...

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...
