| Popis: |
The globalization results in more complex and dynamic supply chains. While Asia becomes the first sourcing alternative for many companies, supply chains need to be redesigned in order to reduce costs, improve performance, increase flexibility and expand collaboration among the parties involved. It also applies to Philips Lighting. The supplier selection is done taking only the price point of view into account. Additionally, all the factories act as independent entities in the supply chain. Therefore, aiming to optimize the supply chain it is necessary to include logistics parameters and consider the system as whole. The goal of this project is to develop a model to compute the total supply chain costs (transportation, warehousing and stocks) for different supply chain designs. Also, a methodology to measure the risk a supplier offers to the supply chain is proposed. The solutions provided in this project could be used as support tools for Philips Lighting while aiming to optimize the supply chain. The scope of this project limits to the lead in wires supply chain, consisting of its suppliers and the Philips TL-factories in Europe. |
