Material Flow Simulation was a commercial project which established the current state of the material flow for the trim line at the Ford Valencia plant through the generation of a simulation model.
A scoping exercise was carried out to capture all the right data from suppliers. This was used to define the right assumptions for the first model to be built. The final simulation included a visual representation of the different flows of tow meters between the warehouses and trim line, highlighting the congestion points and showing relevant information for the different KPIs set.
