English abstract:
The European vehicle industry employs a cascading planning process, for medium-term sales and operations and medium- to shortterm
production planning. Due to a lack of coordination and feedback between the different planning phases, costly problems in
production arise. This paper describes an integrated planning solution for the harmonisation of sales, purchasing, supply chain and
production planning along the planning cascade. By harmonizing long-, medium- and short-term planning, cost savings and
additional value potential can be realized. The basic approach for harmonized planning is illustrated with a case study from special
purpose vehicle production.
