Logistics distributors face the issue of having to
\r\nprovide increasing service levels while being forced to reduce costs at
\r\nthe same time. Same-day delivery, quick order processing and rapidly
\r\ngrowing ranges of articles are only some of the prevailing challenges.
\r\nOne key aspect of the performance of an intra-logistics system is how
\r\noften and in which amplitude congestions and dysfunctions affect the
\r\nprocessing operations. By gaining knowledge of the so called
\r\n‘performance availability’ of such a system during the planning stage,
\r\noversizing and wasting can be reduced whereas planning
\r\ntransparency is increased. State of the art for the determination of this
\r\nKPI is simulation studies. However, their structure and therefore their
\r\nresults may vary unforeseeably. This article proposes a concept for
\r\nthe establishment of ‘certified’ and hence reliable and comparable
\r\nsimulation models.<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1] M. ten Hompel; T. Schmidt; L. Nagel, Materialflusssysteme: F\u00f6rderund\r\nLagertechnik (VDI-Book).
