Abstract

Agile manufacturing (AM) is an operations concept that is intended to improve the competitiveness of firms. In the face of uncertain market conditions, spiralling costs and an ever increasing competition, it becomes imperative that an organisation optimises its manufacturing processes in a way that would help it adapt to changes in the market scenario and remain competitive - changes that may be desirable or undesirable. AM principles enable an organisation to sustain in the competitive market scenario. Concept selection for an AM system is a typical multi criteria decision making (MCDM) problem. In order to enhance the effectiveness of concept selection, an integrated AHP-PROMETHEE approach has been used in the study. The study is aimed at selecting the best concept design of an automobile component. The selected design was subjected to implementation in the case organisation.
