Learning outcomes
This class, together with ‘ Impianti Meccanici E Logistica Lm - 2" will go over the whole-integrated manufacturing process management in different kinds of industry: from industrial firms to service firms. The course will examine carefully main steps of susteinability in materials management, supply chain management, production (product design, manufacturing schedule, assembly, and governance control); completed item shipping and distribution ( logistics, facilities, storage, packaging, shipment, stocks management);
Course goal will be the understanding of the general models and features that lead to the decision, design and management of logistics systems, integrated, flexible. Systems that can successfully comprehend both actual physical flows and information flows, giving back an high-quality level of products on customer-care while reducing significantly idle times and manufacturing major costs, being also sufficiently flexible for market-adapting re-arrangements
