In recent years, the trend of several companies is to re-engineer their production processes to make them more efficient and to delocalize production in countries with more favorable economic conditions. This study proposes a multi-criteria and simulation decision-making approach to assess a new production process in order to rank the best Country for production relocation. The methodological approach has been subdivided into several phases and allows to simulate the criticalities of current production and the new production model through the Flexsim Software©. This methodology is applied to a real-world case study provided by a leading Italian.

Abstract
In recent years, the trend of several companies is to re-engineer their production processes to make them more efficient and to delocalize production in countries with more favorable economic conditions. This study proposes a multi-criteria and simulation decision-making approach to assess a new production process in order to rank the best Country for production relocation. The methodological approach has been subdivided into several phases and allows to simulate the criticalities of current production and the new production model through the Flexsim Software©. This methodology is applied to a real-world case study provided by a leading Italian.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
