The Workbox: Sequencing Final Assembly for Hybrid Pull-ATO Manufacturing at Lucent Technologies, Shreveport
06 November 2000
We describe a new final assembly sequencing system developed for Lucent Technologies, Shreveport. The system will enable transitioning from a Build-to-Stock to a Near Assemble-To-Order paradigm. While many factors affect the feasibility of a pure ATO mode, the workbox is designed to operate in any possible Pull/ATO hybrid.
