Abstract

Recently, fire accidents in a factory that threaten actually producing places have occurred frequently in enterprises which are carrying out management by introducing the SCM. This paper proposes a framework of project management for prompt recovery of production at a time of risk occurrence (a fire accident in a factory) in SCM, and verifies effectiveness of the framework using a periodical estimating method by PERT, taking up as an example, a recovery project of production during the period of fire which occurred at the Tochigi Factory of Bridgestone Co. in September, 2003.
