Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA NOVEL OPTIMIZATION MODEL FOR SIMULTANEOUS COST-RISK REDUCTION IN MULTI-SUPPLIERS JUST-IN-TIME SYSTEMSFaraj El Dabee, Romeo Marian, Yousef AmerIn today’s competitive global markets, Just-in-Time (JIT) is one of the main lean manufacturing approaches. It is used in organizations to improve performance and reduce costs and as a strategic core capability to ensure their market position. However, using JIT tightly couples various functions of the Supply Chain and increases the risk of propagating disruptions through the entire system. This … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 25 Nov 2013 · 7,610 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Strategy to Optimize Lean Supply Chain Design by Meta-HeuristicThi Hong Dang Nguyen, Thien My DaoThis paper aims at presenting one novel quantitative strategy of optimizing the design of Lean supply chain using Meta-Heuristics. While classifying Lean Manufacturing tools in two categories, namely Functional and Tier Lean tools, we propose a new framework to design the Lean supply chain by implementing the former into a 5-echelon Fat supply chain. As the following step, we investigate … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2017 · 7,948 accessesView PDF Cite

InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) in Term of Maynard's Operation Sequence Technique (MOST)Puvanasvaran A. Perumal, Ito Teruaki, Teoh Yong Siang, Yoong Sai SiengIt is a common practice to quantify any process or entire production line in manufacturing industry especially to measure three main losses named time losses, performance losses and quality defect exist in production. Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) fulfils the requirement by providing the measure of equipment via single measure which is monitored from time to time by responsible personnel so … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 15 Nov 2016 · 8,010 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR A SIMULTANEOUS OPTIMISATION OF COST-RISK REDUCTION UNDER A JUST-IN-TIME ADAPTIONFaraj El Dabee, Romeo Marian, Yousef AmerJust-In-Time (JIT) as a lean manufacturing approach plays a significant role in minimising costs and performances of products and services supplied to the global marketplace. However, there are many potential risks that cause significant disruptions to all supply chain members. This study proposes a genetic approach for optimising a novel mathematical model for simultaneously minimising the total cost of a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Dec 2014 · 7,692 accessesView PDF Cite
