LogPRo
Logistische Planungs- und Steuerungssysteme in RoRo- und ConRo-Häfen

The coordination between collaborating partners in the automotive logistics in a sea port is characterised by a short term planning period, because no participant has access to all relevant planning information. The object of investigation in this project is the comprehensive planning and scheduling of the order processing of terminal and transportation services in the automotive logistics of a sea port-automobile-terminal. The goal of this project is the optimization of the planning and scheduling processes of the automotive logistics by developing a common, prototypic it-based control centre, which will be used by terminal and transportation services. With this control centre the transparency of the relevant planning information should be increased for all process partners enabling them to communicate their requirements to each other. As a result every partner can increase its individual benefit and consequently the whole logistic chain can be improved. The continuous and frequently updated view over all activities of the processes allows an improved utilization of the resources of all process partners. The main tasks are the development of an integrated planning and scheduling concept for terminal and transportation services and the accomplishment of a simulation study to validate this concept.
