Research on Demand-driven Leagile Supply Chain Operation Model: A Simulation Based on AnyLogic in System Engineering

Since the early 90s the lean manufacturing system has become popular for industries. Following that, agility in production has received great attention. Exploration of any new techniques for bringing these strategic concepts closer to each other has become advantageous for pioneer industries. Accordingly, the new paradigm of individual control, with the progressive interpretation of ‘autonomy’, can contribute to the objectives of the lean and the agile concepts in production and logistics environments. To explain the contributions of the addressed thesis the study describes it in theoretical and empirical forms. The compatibility of these leading-edge concepts to realise the notion of continuous material flow through supply chains and production floors is examined. Simultaneously, the factors of efficiency, effectiveness and responsiveness are considered. This study covers a quick review on the lean and agility techniques and highlights some specific contributions of autonomous control to their targets. T...

Bridging lean to agile production logistics using autonomous carriers in pull flow

Leagile is an approach to managing production and supply chain excellence that is a hybrid of conventional Lean and Agile thinking and methods. This paper reviews the extant literature relating to ...

Is leagile still relevant? A review and research opportunities

The increasing globalization of the past decades forces the companies to update its supply network strategy in line with the new and challenging context of a competitive market and additional uncertainty This research, through the development of a model, wants to shed light on which are the most important determinants that influence the supply chain configuration and strategy and how they impact on the performance of the whole supply chain

Simulation Optimization of Manufacturing Takt Time for a Leagile Supply Chain with a De-coupling Point

Along with science and technology fast development and people living standard universal enhancement, customer demand on the scope of product and service becomes wider and wider, and their request level becomes higher and higher. Now the society has already entered the period of "competition between supply chains". It is more and more impossible to achieve the target of improving customer satisfaction whilst reducing total cost for the enterprises which only depend on their own strengths to participate in the competition. Supply chain activities are beginning from "customer demand ", however the focal organizations are the ones pouring the original power into the whole supply chains. Based on systematic review of supply strategies and marketing segmentation based on customer value analysis nowadays, this paper makes a overall classified research of supply strategy driven factors by the effective deliveries of customer value through products and services. The achievement will support the supply strategic choice to focal enterprises and their supply chains, and will be of momentous significance for the theoretical system research of supply network strategy as well.
