This book focuses on industrial constraints such as subcontracting, warranty, and quality in manufacturing and logistic fields and gives new integrated maintenance strategies. It presents new production and maintenance Control Policies compared to the Hedging Point theory Strategy and different integrated strategies of maintenance are developed under industrial constraints in order to propose a robustness production and maintenance plan.
The book deals with the latest advances in research on joint maintenance and production strategy extended to quality, warranty, leasing and logistic. In this context, forecasting production and delivery is highlighted in different management policies in integrated maintenance as well as the notion of leasing/warranty on the forecasting production/maintenance optimisation problem and the concept of product quality (conforming and non-conforming products) on the global control policy of manufacturing systems.
