dc.description.abstract |
Nissan Rosslyn manufactures some Nissan models that are available in South
Africa. They have identified a capacity problem in one of their part warehouses. The
Excel based simulation model was constructed to be used as a decision tool in the
evaluation of the specific warehouse as well as future analysis of different
warehouses. The model’s goal is to evaluate the parts flow of the warehouse in
detail and identify problem areas. Different warehouse configurations are simulated
in an attempt to find better alternatives. In this report the model is described, a few
scenarios are simulated and future applications are investigated. The result of
choosing a better alternative is a reduction in capacity problems and an overall more
efficient warehouse. |
