Widespread concern about global competition in manufacturing has led to an increasing need for better, more detailed coordination to improve the performance of manufacturing operations. The research will examine these issues in three different ways. First, the research will expand upon a line of research that addresses coordination among the various stages of production within a single manufacturing facility. Research in this area will focus on the planning and control of systems whose elements have become more tightly coupled because of inventory reductions resulting from the adoption of just-in-time policies. These inventory reductions have created significant challenges to meeting production goals and deadlines, especially in fabrication-assembly systems. In such systems, many parts must be produced or procured in a carefully orchestrated manner to ensure that the parts can be mated in the correct proportions, so that production goals are met. Second, the research will investigate coordination issues among distinct manufacturing facilities building on recent work on establishing supplier delivery schedules and related transportation contracts. A key factor is how each customer's ordering pattern affects the costs of production at the supplier, and how to define ordering policies (at the customers), and, where applicable, order acceptance or delivery date setting policies (at the suppliers) which are mutually beneficial to all parties. Third, the research will concentrate on coordination issues at the interface between manufacturing functions which traditionally have been dealt with separately, both in industry and in the academic literature. Although some of the past research lies in these interfaces (e.g., the interface between production scheduling and transportation logistics, the interface between quality control and production control), the research will focus on the interfaces between operational and tactical control topics and those dealing with capital investment decisions. It is not well understood how operational policies affect the realized capacity of existing manufacturing systems, nor how they should influence choices for new systems. Similarly, it is not well understood how the physical characteristics of existing or proposed manufacturing systems affect the development of good, simple, operational controls. Analytical models will be developed, some descriptive and others optimization-based. The models will consider different levels of information availability (relative to both speed and detail) and practical performance evaluation methods. This also will allow assessment of the value of better information systems and well-designed incentive policies where coordination is important in achieving improved manufacturing performance.

对全球制造业竞争的普遍担忧 导致越来越需要更好、更详细的 协调以提高制造绩效 运营 研究将从三个方面来探讨这些问题。 不同的方式 首先，这项研究将扩展到一个研究领域， 协调生产的各个阶段 在一个单一的制造工厂。 该领域的研究将 重点关注系统的规划和控制，其要素 由于库存减少， 这是由于采取了及时生产政策。 这些 库存减少对满足 生产目标和最后期限，特别是在制造-装配中 系统. 在这样的系统中，必须生产或采购许多部件 以精心策划的方式，以确保各部分可以 以正确的比例配对，从而达到生产目标。 第二，研究将调查协调问题 在不同的制造设施之间建立在最近的工作上， 制定供应商交货计划和相关运输 合同. 一个关键因素是每个客户的订购模式 影响供应商的生产成本，以及如何定义 订购政策（在客户处），以及（如适用）订购 验收或交货日期设定政策（供应商） 这对各方都有利。 第三，研究将集中在协调问题上 在制造功能之间的接口， 传统上，在工业和 在学术文献中。 尽管过去的一些研究 在于这些接口（例如，生产与生产之间的接口 调度与运输物流之间的接口 质量控制和生产控制），研究将集中在 作战和战术控制之间的接口 以及那些处理资本投资决策的人。 不 很好地理解业务政策如何影响已实现的 现有制造系统的能力，也不应该如何 影响新系统的选择。 同样， 了解现有或拟议的 制造系统影响了良好的，简单的， 操作控制。 将开发分析模型，一些描述性和 其他基于优化。 模型会考虑不同的 信息可用性水平（相对于速度和 详细）和实用的绩效评估方法。 这也 将允许评估更好的信息系统的价值 以及设计良好的激励政策， 在实现改进的制造性能方面是重要的。
