Evaluating the performance of recoverable end-of-life products with respect to a set of specific criteria is challenging. This is due to multi-dimensional nature of the decision making process, multiple evaluation criteria, and subjective and imprecise assessments. To effectively deal with this issue, this paper presents a multicriteria decision making method for evaluating the performance of recoverable end-of-life products in the reverse supply chain. The multi-dimensional nature of the performance evaluation process is handled in the context of multicriteria analysis. Linguistic terms approximated by triangular fuzzy numbers are used to tackle the subjectiveness and imprecision of the performance evaluation process. A new algorithm is developed for producing an overall performance index for every recoverable end-of-life product alternative across all performance evaluation criteria. A recoverable end-of-life products' performance evaluation problem is presented for demonstrating the applicability of the method.

“…This is because the fast pace of relevant technological changes means that remanufacturers have to adopt new disassembly tools and equipment. A large number of tools and equipment will therefore need to be discarded more frequently, which requires remanufacturers to operate more efficiently and attain a break-even point on the facility investment in a shorter time (Du et al, 2012). Product variety as a result of innovation is also a threat to remanufacturing due to requirement for a higher number of inventories and customising parts, which results in higher operational costs than for functional products, which typically entail more standardised components (Hu, Ko, Weyand, Elmaraghy, Lien, Koren et al, 2011;Westkamper, 2003).…”

Abstract:Purpose: Disassembly is an important process that distinguishes remanufacturing from conventional manufacturing. It is a unique process that becomes focus of investigation from many scholars. Yet, most scholars investigate disassembly from technical and operational standpoint that lack of strategic perspective. This paper attempts to fill this gap by looking at disassembly from a strategic perspective by considering organisational characteristics, process choices and product attributes. To be more specific, this paper has three objectives. First, to gain understanding what has been done, and what need to be done in the field of disassembly in remanufacturing. Second, to conduct a systematic literature review for identifying the factors affecting disassembly for remanufacturing. Third, to propose a new model of disassembly for remanufacturing and also to provide avenues for future research.Design/methodology/approach: This study used a systematic literature review method. A series of steps were undertaken during the review. The study was started with determining the purpose of the study, selecting appropriate keywords, and reducing the selected papers using a number of criteria. A deeper analysis was carried out on the final paper that meets the criteria for this review.-899- 2053 Findings: There are two main findings of this study. First, a list of factors affecting disassembly in remanufacturing is identified. The factors can be categorised into three groups: organisational factors, process choices and product attributes. Second, using factors that have been identified, a new model of disassembly process for remanufacturing is developed. Current studies only consider disassembly as a physical activity to break down products into components. In the new model, disassembly is viewed as a process that converts into into output, which consist of a series of steps. Journal ofIndustrial Engineering and Management -http://dx.doi.org/10.3926/jiem. Research limitations/implications:The opportunities for future research include: the need to develop an index of factors affecting disassembly, and how to most appropriate relationship between original equipment manufacturers and contract remanufacturers to share knowledge gained from remanufacturing operations to improve product remanufacturability. Practical implications:Remanufacturers should not focus on product attributes only in order to manage their disassembly process efficiently. Rather, more strategic factors such organisational factors and process choices should also be considered as well.Originality/value: This is the first study that identifies a comprehensive factors affecting disassembly in remanufacturing. In addition, it is for the first time that disasembly is not only viewed as a physical activity, but it is a process that consists of a series of step.

“…Factors considered when creating these metrics include ease of conducting remanufacturing activities (Du et al, 2012), historical failure data (Anityasari and Kaebernick, 2008) and variability within a product design . These indirectly enable the evaluation of economic factors described in section 2.2.…”

“…Qualitative techniques have been employed when it has been difficult to express a factor in a quantitative manner. Du et al (2012) use a scoring system (1-10) to allow expert users to qualitatively express the pollution reduction through remanufacturing. …”
