In this paper, the authors discuss the evolution of automobile market creation employing a “Total Marketing System” (TMS)as a core technology of New JIT, which contributes to constructing a Scientific Mixed Media Model (SMMM)for boosting automobile dealer visits. More concretely, the authors develop and validate the effectiveness of putting together four core elements (Video that Unites Custome...

Indian industries are in the process of implementing best production practices of Supply Chain Management (SCM), Just in Time (JIT) and Total Quality Management (TQM). These practices are being applied in isolation and collectively in different combinations. The integration of these practices is a major issue which this paper will try to address. Models of these practices as applicable to indus...

MIRROR PLANT uses physical plant modeling based on physical and chemical laws. However, the physical model cannot express some phenomena in plants, especially those which are not physically determined yet. We propose a hybrid model of a physical model and a statistical model based on historical plant operation data. Combining the physical model and statistical model improves the estimation accu...

Cost, quality, patient satisfaction etc. are some important issues facing healthcare industry. Hospitals are searching continuously for innovative ways to contain costs without sacrificing quality and meet the patients’ needs. One successful solution has been the adoption of JIT manufacturing systems which involve many functional areas of a company such as manufacturing, engineering, marketing,...

Implementing lean manufacturing concepts is essential for companies in the manufacturing and service industries to survive in the very competitive global marketplace. A key point is to eliminate waste while delivering value to the customers. Thus, graduates from engineering programs such as manufacturing, industrial and systems engineering and engineering management must be able to focus and ap...

Although change management panaceas have been widely discussed in the business and management literature for several decades, not many publications address the role of simulation modeling in supporting these panaceas. This paper investigates four management innovation and change programs: TQM, JIT, BPR and Process Innovation and discusses how simulation modeling could increase their effectivene...

This paper analyzes the impact of information technologies (IT) on logistics by conducting a survey of literatures on academic logistics journals and practitioner journals. The literature survey and practice find that third party logistic providers have better opportunity to leverage IT since they need to have interoperable IT systems with their customers. The business philosophy of Just-In-Tim...

With the widespread use of manufacturing philosophies such as Just-In-Time (JIT), emphasis has shifted to the simultaneous consideration of cardinal and ordinal data in supplier selection process. Traditionally, many optimization models of supplier selection assume that the average prices of related expenditures are constant. This is far beyond the real situation. In fact, suppliers usually off...
