摘要：

Ford Motor Company has designed, developed, and implemented a collective system of decision support tools, supply chain visualization methods, and optimization techniques to aid its planning and scheduling in a complex automotive manufacturing environment. Although originally developed particularly for stamping plants, the system can also be applied in other manufacturing environments where setup times play a dominant role. By enabling substantial improvements in workplace planning and production scheduling, the implementation of this system has resulted in significant reductions in premium freight charges, overtime wages, and inventory costs.
