Abstract

In the course of logistics systems designing, great emphasis has been recently put on speed, quality and flexibility of the proposed solutions. The logistics system draft requires then not only an analysis of the logistics systems requirements, a draft of several solution variants and their static verification but also dynamic verification of performance of the designed system in real conditions in a form of computer simulation. The following article deals with the issues of the use of computer simulation for logistics processes and systems designing.

  • Logistics Processes and Systems DesigningThe aim of the logistics processes and systems designing is to draft such a logistics system in the pre-implementation phase which could meet all the necessary technical (optimum use of resources, high level of provided services, system flexibility, high transparency, etc.) as well as economic (return of investments, logistics costs, productivity, etc.) parameters without additional adjustments and interventions into the real system in the phase of its implementation and operation [2 and 3]

  • The current pressure on fast innovations in the factory means higher demands on logistics systems designing from the point of view of the laboriousness reduction, time and costs consumption for implementation of the entire designing process and increase of quality, complexity and information ability of outputs generated from the process [4]

Summary

Logistics Processes and Systems Designing

The aim of the logistics processes and systems designing is to draft such a logistics system in the pre-implementation phase which could meet all the necessary technical (optimum use of resources, high level of provided services, system flexibility, high transparency, etc.) as well as economic (return of investments, logistics costs, productivity, etc.) parameters without additional adjustments and interventions into the real system in the phase of its implementation and operation [2 and 3]. 2. Material flow analysis and transport performances calculation. 5. Computer simulation – dynamic dimensioning of the material flow components [2]. The basic information source for the designing is mainly a database from the technical preparation of the production. The data for logistics system designing has to include information about:. Products (P – Product), which will be manipulated, transported and stored in the logistics system (products types, bills of materials, material consumption standards, construction parameters, physical characteristics of the individual items, etc.).
