Supply Chain Management I Engineering Management I (to a lesser extent) Students that did not take SCM I will require substantial extra effort in order to properly follow SCM II

Identify the main challenges and solution approaches in integrated Supply Chain Management, including the application of Information Systems. Establish the most appropriate manufacturing planning and control systems for the various types of companies. Relate product and company traits to the most appropriate layout. Application of the Lean approach in the design and operation of the productive and logistic systems, and compare them with alternative approaches. Apply the basis elements of warehouse management.

CB1. Students have demonstrated possession and understanding of knowledge in an area of study that builds on the foundation of general secondary education, and is usually at a level that, while relying on advanced textbooks, also includes some aspects that involve knowledge from the cutting edge of their field of study CB2. Students are able to apply their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional manner and possess the competences usually demonstrated through the development and defence of arguments and problem solving within their field of study. CB3. Students have the ability to gather and interpret relevant data (usually within their field of study) in order to make judgements which include reflection on relevant social, scientific or ethical issues. CB5. Students will have developed the learning skills necessary to undertake further study with a high degree of autonomy. CG1. Ability to solve problems with initiative, decision-making, creativity, critical reasoning and to communicate and transmit knowledge, skills and abilities in the field of Industrial Engineering. CG3.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: In the academic year 2023/24 (as since 21/22) this subject will be taught online Subjects SCM I and SCM II have been selected in the "1ª Convocatoria de Aprendizaje Activo en Docencia Digital (Active Learning in Digital Education)", thus they will be taught entirely online (except the midterm tests and the final exam, and eventually lab sessions), through platforms such as BBC and/or Engageli. Thus, students enrolling in any of these elective courses must regularly attend the sessions (online; activating camera and microphone), and adhere to an active methodology, involving continuous individual and group work, as preparation and complement of the online sessions. Session recording is not currently planned; individual recording is forbidden unless explicitly authorized. Given the innovative and exploratory nature of this call ("Convocatoria"), by enrolling in these elective courses students accept that the (anonymized) results of these courses (academic results, surveys, experiences...) might be used for research and/or learning methodology development purposes, and eventually disseminated (e.g. in Education conferences, journals,...) * Introduction. Evolution. Representation, flows, balancing. * Production Management ** Product-process matrix ** Lay-out and production processes typology ** Group Technology and flexible manufacturing cells * Lean Production (I) ** Pillars of the Lean approach ** Jidoka.
