Summary: | A panel of simulation managers from manufacturing companies discuss the following six topics: (1) How are managers responsible for manufacturing best persuaded to try simulation? (2) How can capturing the benefits of simulation best be made a regular process? What are the roles of model databases and reuse, input databases, standardization, change management, simulation project management, and training in such a process? (3) What other areas should one consider in addition to the ones listed in item 2 above in such a process? (4) Where should the Simulation Services Department reside in the organizational structure of a manufacturing company? Should it be centralized or decentralized? (5) How can simulation usage ("the first project") best be undertaken to be a success? (6) How can momentum best be maintained after simulation usage is accepted? |
