It is necessary to identify a suitable strategy for the reconfiguration process and to continue to meet the demand during the change in the factory structure and ramp-up phase. A simulation offers the possibility to analyze different ramp-up scenarios for the factory structure and to select a suitable concept for the reconfiguration process. A discrete event simulation approach is presented that can be used to evaluate variants of structural changes and serves as a basis for deciding on a reconfiguration strategy. This approach is demonstrated using a specific production step of a plant producing hydrogen electrolyzers, the results and generalized conclusions are discussed.}, language = {en} } @misc{WildGalkaWappleretal., author = {Wild, Tobias and Galka, Stefan and Wappler, Mona and Xing, Lu}, title = {Integrating supply chain aspects into factory planning, a simulation approach}, series = {The journey to sustainable supply chains: proceedings of the 26th International Symposium on Logistics (ISL 2022), 10-13th July 2022, Cork, Ireland}, journal = {The journey to sustainable supply chains: proceedings of the 26th International Symposium on Logistics (ISL 2022), 10-13th July 2022, Cork, Ireland}, editor = {Potter, A. and Pawar, K.

In this phase, detailed information about the supply chain network (e.g. which suppliers deliver which parts) is often unavailable. Nevertheless, typical decisions in supply chain management, like the definition of replenishment processes and quantities or make-or-buy decisions, impact space requirements in the factory and should therefore be considered in the factory planning. This research article proposes a simulation approach for a factory simulation in which raw material replenishment is integrated to evaluate the space requirements for raw materials.}, language = {de} }
