| Tiivistelmä: | Based upon a yearlong project carried out at a UK luxury carmaker, this article argues for a supply chain where upstream synchronisation is improved by the use of primary demand to calculate second and third tier component requirements. The article formulates a case for further developments to the established automotive "sequenced" supply model, where synchronised and lean first tires are frequently supplied by lower tires that carry higher stock levels, and whose production patterns bear little relationship to primary demand. The proposed development aims to enhance synchronisation of the lower proportion of the chain that is outside the reach of full "sequenced" supply, but within the time horizon of the vehicle manufacturers company build schedule. |
