FN ISI Export Format VR 1.0 PT J TI Engineering and Evaluation of Process Alternatives in Tactical Logistics Planning AF Glöckner, Michael Mutke, Stefan Ludwig, André AU Glöckner, M Mutke, S Ludwig, A BP 166 EP 176 AB The objective of tactical planning in logistics is the engineering and evaluation of processes within a given set of possible alternatives. Due to outsourcing and a division of labor, a high number of participants, available services and thus possible process alternatives arises within logistics networks. The additional wide range of service description and annotation methods result in a complex planning process. In order to support planning, a semi-automated approach is presented in this paper that is based on a combined catalog and construction system (for engineering) and a generic simulation approach (for evaluation) that are able to handle the variety of description and annotation methods. The basic concepts are presented and afterward associated by a model-driven approach in order to connect them and make them compatible to work with each other. Finally, a method is developed to foster a semi-automated engineering and evaluation of process alternatives. DI 10.5220/0005377801660176 ER
