This approach is generally based on a continuous and iterative process that aims to identify and analyze risks, to assess and prioritize them, in order to monitor and control them. In this context, the identification phase is considered the most critical because it does condemn the rest of the risk management process. In this paper, we propose a study that will customize some existing methods of risk identification in order to detect the risks related to a construction Project. Then, we will study the dependencies between risks in order to define the impact of the occurrence of a risk on other risks characteristics.","PeriodicalId":265851,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Logistics Operations Management","volume":"206 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132196614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this problem, the quantity of demands generally exceeds the capacity of a truck. As a result, demands have to be split into full truckloads, taking into account the various capacities in the heterogeneous fleet of vehicles that perform the transportation. Full truckload routes have to be designed and scheduled according to construction or loading constraints on pickup and delivery sites. In the first phase, we propose a linear program to split demands into full truckload requests. The second phase is a heuristic that solves a heterogeneous full truckload pickup and delivery problem with time windows and resource synchronization. The method is evaluated on instances from a real case study.","PeriodicalId":265851,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Logistics Operations Management","volume":"123 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126009024","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The considered system is composed of an industrial facility subject to random failures and producing a product family intended to a given market with dynamic demand. The market demand varies in term of product type and demand rate. To face the three sources of uncertainty (failures, product type and demand rate) the manufacturing facility is designed to be reconfigurable. Within the class of RMS the considered system is designed to change its structure quickly in order to adjust its production capability in term of capacity and product type to produce. Given the significant compromise between reconfiguration, production, inventory and backlog costs, this paper main objective aims to propose a feedback adaptive strategy which provides a better control of the reconfiguration sequence and the production rate of the system and minimizes a cost function. A dynamic programming formulation of the problem is presented. Then, a numerical schema is adopted to solve the obtained optimality conditions. Under the hedging point policies (HPP) class, a configuration dependent HPP is proposed. The results show a significant gain in term of incurred costs compared to those incurred when the reconfiguration decision are developed independently of the production planning decisions. Several sensitivity analysis are conducted to illustrate the robustness and effectiveness of the proposed policies.","PeriodicalId":265851,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Logistics Operations Management","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131090424","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective is to create a set of a predetermined number of routes that maximizes the total collected profit such that the time restriction and the vehicle capacity constraints are respected on each route.

The sector has to balance the seemingly incompatible demand of cost reduction and quality improvement. Despite hospital supply chains having a great impact on hospital budgets, still opportunities for optimization exist. The prerequisite for hospital supply chain improvement is measurement. Therefore the purpose of this research is to identify performance indicators that allow the design of a hospital performance measurement system (HPMS) for the downstream pharmaceutical supply chain. This HPMS should answer the following question: to which degree the pharmaceutical supply chain in the hospital is efficient and effective and how to improve them? This paper is organized as follow: first, reviewing the literature on the hospital supply chain and the performance measurement. Second, we describe pharmaceutical Supply Chain within the hospital in order to gain profound understanding in its processes. Finally, designing a performance measurement system. Throughout the research, SCOR reference model is used for the selection of indicators for the HPMS. Furthermore, the field research has been conducted based on semi-structured interviews with hospital staff from Belgian hospitals.","PeriodicalId":265851,"journal":{"name":"2014 International Conference on Logistics Operations Management","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129037413","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study shows also a tendency in some studies to deviate from lean manufacturing philosophy looking for optimality based on restrictive objectives. Furthermore, some differences in literature in defining some concepts related to in-plant milk run system were illustrated.
