ADOPTION OF SIMULATION TECHNIQUES FOR MASTERING LOGISTIC COMPLEXITY OF MAJOR CONSTRUCTION AND ENGINEERING PROJECTS

摘要

Major construction and engineering projects pose high challenges at logistic planning, including numerous restrictions, risks and dynamic effects. Consequently many tasks cannot be effectively solved using conventional tools and methods. We propose an integrated planning procedure that adopts simulation techniques in order to consider the whole supply chain and incorporate operative processes as well as stochastic factors. These integrated planning principles have been applied successfully in the project Sochi 2014 and will be outlined here.
