Abstract
- Aircraft manufacturing is typically characterized by large, highly complex end items that require a great deal of human assembly resources. For large scale operations producing complex items at high volumes, management oversight is broken down into discrete areas that operate as internal suppliers/customers to each other. While the scale of the production system lends itself to this decomposition, global efficiency can suffer in such a scenario (based on internal managerial and political dynamics). This paper presents an enterprise model for optimizing a large scale, high volume assembly operation based on the minimization of the variability between labour capacity and labour demand.
