Increasing market fluctuations and variant diversity as well as shorter delivery times with delivery dates that cannot be postponed caused a lot of extra work and unrest in production and final assembly at Fritz Driescher GmbH & Co. The new logistics business model was implemented in the form of a market-synchronized value chain from component production to final assembly, in which production was greatly streamlined. To achieve this, capacity bottlenecks had to be eliminated, throughput increased and lead times shortened.
