  • Accountability‐based order fulfillment process reengineering towards supply chain management: A case study at a semiconductor Equipment Manufacturer
    Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management, 2010
    Co-Authors: Linda L. Zhang, Roger J. Jiao
    Abstract:

    Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to provide a methodology to industry and academia on how to reengineer the order fulfillment process (OFP) by capitalizing on integration and coordination across the entire supply chain to sustain supply chain management.Design/methodology/approach – A case study at a semiconductor Equipment Manufacturer in Singapore is undertaken.Findings – This paper confirms that the traditional OFPs present companies a challenge to satisfy the demanding customer requirements while achieving performance optimization of each supply chain partner; and it is imperative to reengineer the OFPs to stay competitive. To successfully reengineer OFPs, the efforts should be systematically organized to, for example, exploit potential processes as many as possible, determine an optimal process based on mathematically sound grounds.Research limitations/implications – The use of a single case study may limit the generalizability of the findings.Practical implications – A methodology incorporatin...

  • An integrated fuzzy approach for prioritizing supply chain complexity drivers of an Indian mining Equipment Manufacturer
    Resources Policy, 2017
    Co-Authors: E.g. Kavilal, S. Prasanna Venkatesan, K.d. Harsh Kumar
    Abstract:

    The complexities in present day supply chain are numerous and are evolving due to globalization, customisation, innovation, flexibility, sustainability and uncertainties. The growing supply chain complexity results in negative consequences on cost, customer service and reputation. Managing supply chain complexity without compromising the profitability is a challenging task. Supply chain complexity (SCC) management involves identifying, prioritizing, measuring, analysing and controlling/eliminating the drivers of complexity. The SCC drivers denote number and variety of suppliers, customers, products, processes and uncertainties which are highly interdependent. Firms need to prioritize the drivers in order to manage and simplify SCC. Models and methods to prioritize the complexity drivers considering their interdependence are limited in literature. Prioritizing the complexity drivers requires a subjective approach and it is a multi criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. In this research, at first a fuzzy ISM (Fuzzy Interpretive Structural Modelling) is used to establish the interdependence of SCC drivers. A fuzzy AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) and fuzzy PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation) are then used to quantify and prioritize the complexity drivers considering the strength of interdependence obtained using the fuzzy ISM. A case example of a mining Equipment Manufacturer located in India is presented to illustrate the proposed approach. From the results it is identified that unreliability of suppliers, forecast inaccuracy, lack of visibility /information sharing and number/variety of processes are the significant drivers.

  • Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)-supplier integration to prepare for production ramp-up
    Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management, 2019
    Co-Authors: Paraskeva Wlazlak, Kristina Säfsten, Per Hilletofth
    Abstract:

    Although prior research provides evidence that production ramp-up is often disrupted by supplier-related problems, it fails to discuss how the original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and various types of suppliers integrate their functions and operations to secure preparations for production ramp-up. The purpose of this paper is to investigate OEM–supplier integration in a new product development (NPD) project to prepare for production ramp-up.,The results presented in this paper are based on a real-time, longitudinal study of a single collaborative NPD project in the mechanical engineering industry. The NPD project involves seven suppliers and it is carried out in a large Swedish company (the OEM) and fits the theory-elaborating approach of this research.,This study argues that the aspect of timing in OEM–supplier integration, the OEM’s research and development (R&D) attitude toward collaboration and the OEM’s (R&D) operating procedure are challenges affecting the preparation for production ramp-up. The following three mechanisms to facilitate OEM–supplier integration in order to prepare for production ramp-up are also discussed: the mediator’s role, the OEM’s face-to-face meeting at the project level and suppliers’ formal face-to-face meetings with the OEM and internally.,This paper elaborates on and extends prior research on production ramp-up by conducting an empirical analysis that incorporates supplier integration in NPD. It bridges the gap between the literature on production ramp-up and on supplier integration in NPD and clearly indicates that supplier integration is an important prerequisite for successful production ramp-up.
