Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The supply chain design defines the operating basis of a supply chain and thereby naturally affects the strategic and financial performance of a company. Yet, companies often tend to neglect to include supply chain design in their strategic planning processes, partly due to the fact that there has been a lack of decision support system for these crucial decisions. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to describe how advanced planning systems (APS), as a standard commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) decision support system, can be used to design and configure the most efficient supply chain structure. To illustrate this, the paper includes two case studies that have used APS to analyse and re-configure their respective supply chains. The cases show many similarities, but also differences in terms of modelling techniques and project management, impacting the results and usefulness of employing a standard APS for supply chain design.

Effects from implementing advanced planning & scheduling systems for supply chain planning
- 2011
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 2011 EurOMA conference.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The purpose is to analyze the effects from Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) systems for supply chain planning, both in terms of experienced benefits and problems, and the impact of the planning context and implementation approach. The research is based on a multiple case study of five manufacturing firms. It is concluded that the APS implementation focus and APS use impact three effect types differently if applying a process or system focus and more positively if applying an APS lead, compared to lag, approach. It also shows that the organisation, individuals, technology impact the effects, no matter APS implementation focus.

Maintenance management in process industries:mapping current practices
- 2010
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 17th EurOMA conference, 2010.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The overall purpose of this research is to map the maintenance management in three companies in the process industry sector and to analyse whether these companies apply a holistic perspective on their maintenance management. We have mapped our cases using the framework developed by Crespo Márquez et al. (2009) and our results show that even though maintenance is of utmost importance in the process industry, few companies have a strategic and holistic perspective on maintenance management.

Case studies on Advanced Planning & Scheduling (APS) Systems : Invited Session at DSI 2010
- 2010
-
Ingår i: Decision Sciences Institute 2010 Annual Meeting.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Advanced Planning & Scheduling (APS) Systems have been around as standard systems for more than a decade. Still few cases on their practical use and implementation are found in academic research. This session aims at providing cases on the practical use of standard APS systems, and on its functionality, in industry.

Energy management in process industries:current practices and future challenges
- 2010
-
Ingår i: Proceedings of the 17th EurOMA Conference, 2010.
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Previous research indicates a great potential within process industries regarding the use, distribution, and supply of energy, affecting manufacturing costs and revenues. The purpose of this study is thus to analyze, and to provide suggestions for improvements for, energy management in a process industry company. This will be done by mapping the energy flow and usage for a case company. The results of this study indicate that a strategic perspective on energy issues is necessary in order to reach the full potential of energy savings and for establishing an effective energy management system.
