Challenges for planning, control
and logistics
The development of automotive supply
chains will be affected by various trends in
the upcoming years. An increasing rate of
purchases, production and sales volumes
from developing countries leads to a shift
of local structures. The transformation of
the seller’s market into a buyer’s market
affects the increasing demand for complex
and individual vehicles. Sustainability and
the development of alternative engines
become increasingly important and push
the dynamic process of innovation. The
increasing pressure on cost efficiency
throughout the supply chain leads to high
demands for efficient networks, especially
against the background of increasing
uncertainty.
These challenges must be met with
forward-looking planning, efficient
management and innovative logistics
concepts to make automotive manufac-

turing and its integration in supply chains
sustainable for the future.
Against the background of the afore-
mentioned challenges, the business unit of
planning, control and logistics within the
Fraunhofer Automobile Production Alliance
offers solutions for the following key
subjects:
– Planning and control processes:
Efficient design and management of
processes and production systems in
complex automotive networks.
– IT systems and technology:
Innovative information systems enable the
exchange of large volumes of data and
specific information for production and
the whole supply chain.
– Logistics and SCM:
Innovative approaches and technologies
for efficient internal and external logistics
as well as supply chain management.

The specific services and technologies
offered by the alliance in this business
unit are presented here.
Planning and control processes
In the future, it will be necessary to make
production networks more versatile by
forward-looking planning and efficient
control. In particular, the 4th industrial
revolution will require changes of planning
and control concepts.
To deal with the growing complexity and
the need for versatility in automotive supply
chains, special solutions for planning and
managing processes, and production
systems are offered by the Fraunhofer
institutes. This includes especially the
following topics:
Order fulfillment processes
– Holistic design and evaluation of the
order fulfillment process
– Production program planning
– ATP / CTP
– Sequence planning
– Demand and capacity management
Design of production systems
– Lean Management
– Valuestream-oriented Factory
– Machinery and service management
– Total productive management (TPM)
Global planning and management
– Integrated product and process planning
– Process oriented management systems
– Supplier development
Logistics and SCM
Supply chains become more and more
global and complex due to the steadily
increasing globalization. This demands the
design of close interactions throughout the
supply chain. Therefore, the Fraunhofer
alliance provides innovative approaches for
efficient and sustainable internal and
external logistics and automotive supply
chain management.
This especially includes the following main
topics:
Supply chain management
– Design and planning of production
and logistics networks
– Optimization of production networks
– Supplier evaluation and selection
– Training and management games
Technology and automation
– Material flow technology and automation
– Material flow planning and planning of
logistics systems

The interconnection and efficient manage-
ment of global automotive networks
requires innovative information systems
across all levels of OT (e.g. shop floor level,
MES, ERP, SCM). The alliance institutes
offer solutions for data exchange and IT
support for the following main topics:
