| Abstract: | The paper deals with Visteon's Sterling plant - the world's second largest supplier of automotive parts and components, until 1997 Ford Automative Products Operations - and its strategic decision support system (DSS) that integrates plant-floor information systems and simulation for three related, mutually reinforcing purposes: productivity training, productivity improvement in operations, and design of new operations. |
