Efficient Evaluation of Production Measures Based on Logistical Models

Abstract

In the course of globalization, producing companies are confronted with new challenges to optimize their logistics performance based on logistical measures. In order to be able to create a quantifiable basis for the selection of optimal measures, a management tool was developed at the Institute for Production Systems and Logistics. The developed tool is based on logistical and transfer models for logistically and monetarily evaluating logistical measures. Based on implemented logistical measures, this paper focuses on the evaluation of improved logistics performance and its impact on sales.
