Tiivistelmä
The primary aim of this thesis was to describe tools and attributes required to plan and analyze supply chains for a new product. The new product is an aerosol filter that has been designed by Tampere University of Applied Sciences’ engineering group, to control metal exhaust ventilation in metal working factories. The points that needed to be addressed were mainly the business model for the new product, alternative market entry mode, and logistics strategy and analysis.
To answer the research problem except for online sources and academic literature, a small interview and a survey were conducted. The interview and survey participants were; the engineering group, commissioner, and maintenance group. The results showed the product criteria and function, end users, possible suppliers and partners, and production planning for the future.
Based on data retrieved from a variety of sources, the business model for the new product was formed. Moreover, logistics strategy and analysis methods were defined. At the end, in conclusion part, procedures which are helpful in planning a supply chain for a new product were summarized.
