Abstract

Supply Chain Simulation (SCS) is today a well-defined branch of discrete-event simulation applications. The differences between different applications are usually small, but in the case of SCS, models tend to be larger, take longer time to build and are harder to validate. To remedy some of these issues in SCS, we propose to use the SCOR model (Supply Chain Operations Reference Model) as a tool to speed up the simulation modeling of supply chains. The SCOR model can be useful in the conceptual phase, the modeling phase, and in the experimental phase of a simulation project. In SCOR Template, a modeling template in Arena, all level 3 processes of Source, Make, and Deliver are modeled to provide the SCS model builder a tool that is fast, follows the SCOR standards in processes and metrics, and simple to use. Here we report on the third version of the SCOR Template.
