This project's objective is to investigate and develop improved inventory approaches for a complex, multi-stage, in sourced and outsourced production distribution environment. This is segmented in many ways depending on time available, data available, and resources available.

The objective of this project is to develop a comprehensive selective maintenance model that considers multiple systems and allows for the planning horizon to expand and to incorporate important concepts such as component aging, imperfect maintenance, cannibalization and workforce shaping into the new selective maintenance models

This research advocates the use of discrete-event simulation as a proactive tool in assessing the effect of product variety on production performance
