Impact of the leagility concept on the logistics flows optimization: The Moroccan aeronautic industry case

Abstract

The aeronautic industry is an industry that uses the most innovative technologies ensuring safety, quality and respect for the environment. Thus, the problem that arises is to manufacture, at the least cost, more comfortable, safer and more effective aircraft that meets the expectations of passengers and the requirements of the companies. As a matter of fact, our paper is aimed at and, through a hypothetical-deductive approach, to emphasize the need to adopt the organizational concept called «Leagility». This concept combines two organizational concepts, the first is a rational system called «lean Management» (LM). It is a progressive and continuous system that promotes the total quality approach and the development of a value chain as well as the elimination of any kind of waste or losses. The second presents a reactive system called «Agile Thinking» (AT), Which emphasizes the perfect knowledge of the market and the judicious exploitation of the notion of a virtual company to exploit the opportunities that present themselves in a volatile market in order to guarantee a quality at the first time.
