It was a central planning tool for car production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since then, we tackled inbound and outbound transportation, car sequencing, truck and container loading. More recently, we moved to the shop floor to deal with scheduling, line balancing, operator assignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Car sequencing, Capacitated VRP, line balancing: the problems we face do not exactly match the academic models. There are always extra tricky constraints and objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Historically, we developed OR applications that were used on a regular basis. More recently, we rolled out tools to carry one shot quick win studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Important challenges remain for full OR adoption: data availability in information systems (especially shop floor constraints), non- standard processes in the plants, OR visibility inside the company, lack of facilitators between the central OR team and the field-level operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/u.pc.cd\/N2XctalK\" target=\"_blank\">4 December 2020 WEBINAR RECORDING<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:46px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.euro-online.org\/websites\/or-in-practice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em><strong>EURO Practitioners\u2019 Forum<\/strong><\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;past and planned activities are available to the Forum members, as well as the wider public.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Visit the&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.euro-online.org\/websites\/or-in-practice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>website<\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;and register as a member for free, to get the regular updates on all activities:&nbsp;<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.euro-online.org\/websites\/or-in-practice\/register\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>EPF Member registration page<\/em><\/a><em>.
