Management of production in a turbulent environment
Abstract
Der Verlauf der Auftragseingänge in Unternehmen zeigt vielfach Merkmale von Turbulenzen. Nicht nur konjunkturelle und saisonale Einflüsse, sondern die Verkürzung von Lieferfristen bei gleichzeitiger Zunahme von Varianten und kundenspezifischen Leistungen begrenzen die Planbarkeit und Prognostizierbarkeit der Operationen in der Produktion.

The environment in which companies operate is highly turbulent. All influencing factors from markets, like customisation of products, fast innovations - caused by new technologies and fast engineering - the complexity of products, and the pressure of global competition define the conditions of manufacturing in the future. In the past manufacturing was oriented towards the flexibility of operating systems. Now, factory structures, technologies and resources have to be transformed permanently for adaptation and survival in a turbulent environment. Knowledge is a main resource and all in all society moves towards a knowledge based society. This paper deals with a new model of factories as complex and transformable systems.
