Kurzfassung
Werkstücke, die Informationen zu ihrer Fertigung gespeichert haben und sich ihren Weg durch die Produktion selbstständig suchen, oder Fahrwerkskomponenten, die ihren Zustand autonom überwachen und bei Bedarf selbstständig eine Inspektion veranlassen, mögen vielleicht noch wie Zukunftsvisionen klingen, werden aber im Sonderforschungsbereich 653 „Gentelligente Bauteile im Lebenszyklus – Nutzung vererbbarer, bauteilinhärenter Informationen in der Produktionstechnik“ bald Wirklichkeit.
In the production logistics context, the success of supply chains corresponds to their ability to meet the logistic performance expectations of customers. This ability depends on the contributions of all supply chain members to the logistical performance of the entire chain. Moreover the overall performance is affected by the dynamic interrelationships between the specific logistic performances of the separate supply chain members. This includes small and medium-sized companies (SMEs). The paper mainly focuses on current supply chain management methods and supply chain management concepts to improve logistical performance and their present application in today's industries especially SMEs.
