Abstract

The complexity of data-driven engineer-to-order manufacturing enterprise supply-chains for effective and efficient decision making has received a lot of attention both within the original equipment manufacturing industrial research and development circle and supply-chains operations research and management circles. However, despite these complexities, most of the published supply-chains research in operations research and management have neglected the ‘engineer-to-order perspective within the original equipment manufacturing supply-chains sector. This research employs a comprehensive study of complex supply-chains management activities to attempt to propose feasible and measurable essential propositions and/or framework for “best practices” in data-driven engineer-to-order supply-chains. There seems to be no specific comprehensive study on the complexity of data-driven engineer-to-order supply-chains within the original equipment manufacturing sectors for complex products such as the aerospace, marine, and/or power plant industries, etc. However, because this area of complexity of data-driven engineer-to-order within enterprise supply-chains have not been much researched or explored; there is an expected challenge of finding enough available literature to draw-on or makes an inference to. Hence, this study will take solace from mostly real-life industrial case(s) and/or activities, etc. Therefore, this paper presents a comprehensive study of the complexity of data-driven engineer-to-order enterprise supply-chains as well as outlining essential propositions and/or framework to enhance effective and efficient resilient complex engineer-to-order supply-chains. This paper will thus, contribute to the development of a more robust and resilient framework when dealing with the complexity of data-driven engineer-to-order enterprise supply-chains.
