A rapid modelling tool for designing global supply chains. Visualizes network structures and allows key performance indicator analysis. Inventory models for inbound and outbound materials are fully customiziable. This software is distributed open source. Industrial partners include ABB.

Production planning and control can be integrated to production machinery, and provided as a service from cloud. Real-time view on asset utilization, various key performance indicators are managed by using a cloud manufacturing platftorm and digital-twin located in the cloud is mirrored in reality. Our cloud manufacturing lab at Technobothia shows how production planning, machine control and production simulation are integrated. Industrial partners include Dimecc and Prima Power.

Large container ships provide large volume of global logistics. In academia, bay planning has been modelled as a stowage problem. However, large ships seem to have lower capacity utilizations compared to smaller vessels. This project has developed tools to visualize container stowage and link key performance indicators at the main leg. Industrial partners include Dimecc, Cargotec, Tieto and Napa.

This book is dedicated to the issues and complexities of industrial services supply chain management. It analyzes how the transition from products to services can be managed, and how supply chains can be adjusted to reflect this new status quo. The book begins with chapters examining product-service systems structures and servitization – the services infusion process.
