SFB 637 - T6 Selbststeuernde Disposition von Verleihartikeln The management of hire equipment within the event industry focusses on the dynamic disposal and control of event related orders in closed logistic systems. At this, heterogeneous loads of equipment, reaching from chairs up to complex stage machinery, circulate between central warehouses and one or more venues. distribution and handling both underlie a large time pressure. Customer requirements, such as a strict adherence to schedules, a high degree of flexibility and an attractive price-performance ratio additionally increase the complexity and dynamics. Thefts, technical problems and the requirements of possible subsequent orders further complicate the order picking and often result in reduced and inefficient transport volumes. Methods of autonomous control are suitable to handle conflicting goals in a dynamic logistic environment. Since January 2012, the project T6 Autonomous controlled distribution of hire equipment addresses the design and evaluation of an autonomously controlled disposition system with integrated route planning for hire equipment. The project takes place in cooperation with the Joke Event AG, a full-service agency for event marketing and management with headquarters in Bremen. Contact persons: S.
