An Approach for Rolling Planning of Migration in Production Networks

Abstract

The planning of production networks and their migration is a complex planning task that faces highly complex interdependencies within a dynamic global setting. Today’s migration planning approaches are either large projects or isolated local investments. As such they are not suited to cope with the interdependencies and the continuity at the same time. The proposed approach introduces a conceptual methodology that incorporates description and evaluation modelling approaches into an overall systematic process for rolling migration planning, thus allowing for integrated consideration of interdependencies in continuous planning of production network migration.
