“…To optimize the cost-efficiency of the vertical depth of manufacturing and due to complex supply chains, the production of single components and final assembly of the vehicle is often not carried out at the same production facility ( [15] p. 309, [25] p. 447 and [39] p. 54). Consequently, all components must be transported to the final assembly facility.…”

“…Consequently, all components must be transported to the final assembly facility. Because just-in-time or just-in-sequence production is the common mode of production for commercial vehicles, high flexibility in the supply-chain is required, and thus road transportation with trucks is often used for the supply of the assembly sites ( [39] p. 54,288).…”

Scalable Life-Cycle Inventory for Heavy-Duty Vehicle Production

et al. 2020

The transportation sector needs to significantly lower greenhouse gas emissions. European manufacturers in particular must develop new vehicles and powertrains to comply with recent regulations and avoid fines for exceeding C O 2 emissions. To answer the question regarding which powertrain concept provides the best option to lower the environmental impacts, it is necessary to evaluate all vehicle life-cycle phases. Different system boundaries and scopes of the current state of science complicate a holistic impact assessment. This paper presents a scaleable life-cycle inventory (LCI) for heavy-duty trucks and powertrains components. We combine primary and secondary data to compile a component-based inventory and apply it to internal combustion engine (ICE), hybrid and battery electric vehicles (BEV). The vehicles are configured with regard to their powertrain topology and the components are scaled according to weight models. The resulting material compositions are modeled with LCA software to obtain global warming potential and primary energy demand. Especially for BEV, decisions in product development strongly influence the vehicle’s environmental impact. Our results show that the lithium-ion battery must be considered the most critical component for electrified powertrain concepts. Furthermore, the results highlight the importance of considering the vehicle production phase.

“…OEMs establish new cooperative ventures, e.g., with computer or telecommunications companies, to adapt non-automotive technologies (Attias, 2017). Manufacturers in the premium segment use purchasing cooperations, distribution networks and production platforms as an entry into less expensive segments (Göpfert et al, 2017). This step is necessary to meet the cost pressure as well as to manage the enormous variety of parts and components.…”

“…There are many publications on logistics planning and execution that include specifics of grocery retailing or manufacturing cars. In an empirical study, Göpfert et al (2012) show that the importance of supply chain management concepts are highest for the automotive industry followed by retailers among all industry sectors (excluding service providers) (Göpfert et al, 2012). However, only few authors focus on similarities and comparisons between the grocery retail trade and the automotive industry.…”

Benchmarking: An International Journal

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to identify and describe similarities between logistics structures and mid-term planning problems in the grocery retail and automotive industries in a specific internal section of their respective supply chains. Design/methodology/approach – The benchmarking approach is used as a framework for this paper. It is based on insights resulting from several joint projects with grocery retailers and automobile producers. A particular focus of the research was participating in an exchange of ideas and experience between logistics managers in both industry sectors. Findings – The authors have identified parallels when comparing the internal retail supply chain of the grocery retail industry, which consists of distribution centres, transportation and in-store logistics, with the internal logistics network in the automotive industry, which consists of logistics supermarkets, transportation and work zone operations at the assembly line. Strong similarities have been found for three planning problems related to tactical planning tasks: assigning products and parts to delivery modes, selecting packaging units and loading carriers, and determining delivery cycles. In comparison to retailing, there is a clearer trend in the automotive industry to plan line-back and align processes with the operator's requirements at the assembly line. Practical implications – For logisticians in grocery retailing and the automotive industry, this paper provides relevant input for functional benchmarking initiatives and offers an inspirational view beyond the horizon. Originality/value – This paper is the first to focus on similarities in logistics network structures and planning tasks between the two industries from the viewpoint of grocery retailing.
