Solving the Logistics Problems of Production Investments with a Simulation Test Method

Abstract

As a result of the increasingly diversified customer needs, investments to transform the production system are gaining prominence. Due to the complexity of the transformation, in many cases there are logistical problems that hinder the current and/or future satisfaction of customer needs due to inadequate planning. The paper also explores the types of possible logistics problems that may occur after the implementation of the investments, as well as the steps of applying a simulation test method to address them.
