Abstract
Emergency is a critical phenomenon in human life. Industries are engaged with different emergency conditions. Emergency management should intervene before, during, and after major disasters. All of these interventions become different tasks for industries’ stakeholders especially car factories. Collaborative team work and coordination of different segments of emergency management was recognised as a critical issue. Concurrent Engineering (CE) is one of the emerging management philosophies that have a strong potential to be applied to different production and service system such as construction or disaster management simultaneously. The aim of this study is to develop a new concurrent engineering model in accordance with the cross-functional interventions among emergency management stockholders in the car factories. The objectives of this study are to identify the effective factors of the concurrent engineering model as clustered interventions and developing the cross-functional intervention network based on the mass of output-input data as a sharing information. Content analysis and structured interviews were designed to show production of sharing information of each workgroup in Iran Khodro car factory. Finally, the Fuzzy MCDM model and transposing system were employed to develop the integrated model.Finally, an integrated CE model was developed among stockholders’ workgroups in Iran Khodro car factory.
