The Institute of Production and Supply Chain Management investigates the planning and control of value creation processes in ... industrial companies. We interpret production holistically, and also study the sourcing of production factors and the distribution of products in addition to the actual production process. Further topics our institute works on are cross-company value creation processes, the design of interfaces between different stages of the value chain and the management of the associated logistics processes. For these and other problem areas, we develop and solve mathematical models that support managerial decision making in practice. In addition to improving the efficiency of production and logistics activities, our interdisciplinary research also takes social and ecological objectives into account. One focus is on human factors and the implications of digital transformation on the future of work in production and logistics. read more
