The paper "Strategic planning of new product introductions: Integrated planning of products and modules in the automotive industry" of Christopher Bersch, doctoral student at the chair, Renzo Akkerman (University of Wageningen) and Rainer Kolisch hast been awarded with the Omega Best Paper Awards 2021. The paper is addressing the timing of new product introductions in the automotive industry under multiple criteria such as utilization of manufacturing resources, sales, dependencies between products, and fleet emissions . Based on a mathematical linear programming model and real data from a major automotive company the trade-offs between the conflicting criteria are shown. The results are relevant for the current transition towards electrified vehicle portfolios.
