Product and Process Design for Successful Remanufacturing
Remanufacturing is an industrial process where used products are restored to useful life. This dissertation describes how products can be designed to facilitate the remanufacturing process. It also describes how the remanufacturing processes can be improved to be more efficient. When comparing remanufacturing with other end-of-life scenarios, it is hard from an environmental perspective to dete...
متن کاملMarket Segmentation and Product Line Design in Remanufacturing
This paper describes an environment where two products are offered, one is remanufactured and the other is all-new. Examining the trade-offs between the customer's utility and production cost variables, the model identifies conditions under which the remanufacturing product may coexist with the all-new product. The paper concludes with some insights on why remanufacturing can be successful with...
متن کاملOffshore Remanufacturing with Variable Used Product Condition
We consider the acquisition and production decisions of a remanufacturer who acquires used products of variable condition and allocates remanufacturing activity to domestic and offshore facilities. The problem is formulated as a multicommodity network flow model with economies of scale and product obsolescence. We show that the remanufacturer's optimal strategy can be chosen from a finite set o...
متن کاملUnderstanding of a product/service system design: a holistic approach to support design for remanufacturing
A product/service system (PSS) facilitates remanufacturing and thus is the article’s subject. This article presents a first quantitative analysis, through a descriptive study, of the details of a PSS design case. To do so, an example of PSS design was conducted using a real offering in the marketplace, and this design episode was analyzed through protocol analysis developed further by the autho...
متن کاملSignaling and Contract Choice in After-Sales Service
The extant literature on after-sales service support suggests an implicit consensus around the (Pareto) superiority of performance-based contracts (PBC) over traditional time-and-material contracts. However, when product technology is new, a setting in which the vendor possesses superior information on product reliability, there is compelling evidence to suggest that buyers prefer the tradition...
