Overview

Rapid Modelling and Quick Response presents new research developments in the fields of rapid modelling and quick response linked with performance improvements (based on lead time reduction, etc., as well as financial performance measures). This volume follows on from Rapid Modelling for Increasing Competitiveness, the first Rapid Modelling Conference proceedings.

The papers and teaching cases in this book were presented at the second Rapid Modelling Conference: Quick Response - Intersection of Theory and Practice. The main focus of this collection is the transfer of knowledge from theory to practice, providing the theoretical foundations for successful performance improvement. Furthermore, illustrations are given in the form of case studies, as well as success stories about new software tools in this field and new approaches.

This conference volume is a must-have for innovative production managers, as well as for mangers of service-providing processes. It contains theoretical, empirical and practical research that challenges the traditional notions of rapid modelling, and offers valuable contributions to the scientific communities of operations management, production management, supply chain management, industrial engineering and operations research.

Rapid Modelling and Quick Response can be used for the education of students, as well as executive managers. It will give the interested reader (researcher, as well as practitioner) a good overview of new developments in this field.
