Description

Scenario

We are a superman character factory in Lego. Our workshop consists of 3 production cells: one that goes up the upper body, one that goes up the lower body and one that assembles the two parts.

The game takes place in 2 runs :

• A first, we have the day-to-day planning. We react immediately to ensure deliveries.
• A second, we have global planning, and our production has been smoothed, allowing us to eliminate variability in the processes.

Objectives

• Understand the principle of leveling
• Understand the consequences of unmatched planning and one-off production.
