Supply Chain Modeling and Simulation using SIMAN ARENA® a Case Study

Abstract

The control of supply chains passes often by identification of various constraints and optimization of the different links and parameters associated to the functioning of the supply chain. To attain these goals, it is vital to get the best knowing and understanding of the supply chain diversity and complexity also to anticipate its behavior, which requires, a pertinent modeling that will offer the necessary information to evaluate the supply chain performance. The present paper focuses on modeling and simulation of a case study of a supply chain using SIMAN ARENA® Rockwell software, mainly transport and different operations in this chain. The purpose is creating the simulation models and how to use in a case study to diagnose and master the operation and functioning of this supply chain. The objective is creating simulation models to determine the performance of the supply chain by calculating the transportation time in each travel, number of travels, number of transported fertilizers and sulfur wagons and unloaded acid talks and finally the waiting times in train station, in order to optimize this performance indicators.
