Abstract:

We describe VinLogic, a simulation of a supply chain network for the distribution of new automobiles. The model is implemented in simulation dynamic's supply chain builder product. One of the key features of the model is its integration with a database containing the status of all vehicle shipments-VinVision. The information in the database is used to distribute vehicles and resources through the network at model start, and the model can then be used to project forward from the current situation. The model is thus able to have a "warm start," and does not require the warm-up period necessary in simulation models that start with the system empty and idle.
