| Aim: The objective of the course is to provide deeper knowledge in manufacturing management. Special attention is paid to the holistic view of the manufacturing process from suppliers to customers and the understanding of different planning systems. After taking this course, the students should be able to formulate, analyse and solve logistics problems with focus on manufacturing. |
|||
| Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) TPPE07 Production and Operations Management. Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding. |
|||
| Supplementary courses: TPPE47 Integrated Manufacturing Management. TPPE50 Manufacturing Strategies. TETS11 Integrerated Logistics. |
|||
| Organisation: Lectures and problem seminaries are mainly focused on the fundamental principles and frameworks for production logistics whereas the laboratory sessions highlight dynamic aspects using computer applications. |
|||
| Course contents: The course provides competence in the area of production logistics. The foundation is a process based systems approach with clear focus on customer value and the subject is positioned within Supply Chain Management. SCOR is a reference model to exemplify processes and the customer order decoupling point is a key concept. Sales and Operations Planning is used to scale the enterprise resources. Demand consolidation is important to get an overview of the market requirements in terms of forecasts and different types of customer orders/schedules. Also different techniques, such as ATP and CTP, are covered to provide reliable delivery promises. Understanding of resources and capacity is a key factor to be able to create realizable plans. Three frameworks for operations management are included to provide a fundamental understanding for the respective frameworks opportunities and weaknesses. The three frameworks covered are MRPII, Lean Manufacturing (LM) and Theory of Constraints (TOC). MRPII represents a traditional, and many times useful, perspective on production logistics with the base in materials planning. Lean Manufacturing with focus on repetitive production and with the roots in Toyota Production System has much to offer to create efficient flow. TOC is especially developed to handle bottlenecks efficiently and is therefore a complement to the two other frameworks. Based on these three frameworks a separate extension into the area of customer order driven manufacturing is provided as well as how to extend the frameworks to also work in coordinated supply chains, i.e. manufacturing networks. Finally some examples are included of how to combine the different frameworks into so called hybrid systems corresponding to the requirements of the manufacturing strategic perspective. |
