Transport / Transportation / Shipping
The ontkoppelpuntmodel was developed by Philips. At the end of the seventies and the start of the eighties of the previous century, an ontkoppelpuntmodel was developed. In principle, this model goes out from the presumption that there are two parts to a cargo flow in an organisation, i.e. a cargo flow that is guided according to a specific plan, followed by a cargo flow guided by orders.
This term belongs to Logistics. I tried to change the specific field to Logistics: Transport many times, but I the system would allow the alteration.

The VBTO model has 3 fulfilment mechanisms: stock, BTO and pipeline. Products can be found from any point in the pipeline – there is not a fixed decoupling point

Virtual-build-to-order (VBTO) is a form of order fulfilment system in which the producer has the ability to search across the entire pipeline of finished stock, products in production, and those in the production plan, in order to find the best product for a customer. It is a system design that is attractive to Mass Customizers, such as those in the automotive sector, whose manufacturing lead time exceeds their customers’ tolerable waiting times, and for whom the holding of partly finished stocks at a fixed decoupling point is unattractive or unworkable.

SCM - Customer Decoupling Point ~ Query from PATNI1
Hello all, I am a student in IIT, Madras and doing my masters' thesis on the field of supply chain management. My topic deals with positioning of customer order decoupling point. I need help regarding the modelling of a SCM model, by taking into consideration the constraints of CODP. I need help regarding the study material deals with the quantitative aspects of modelling in SCM. please provide info on same.

That should of course be 'decoupling point model' and not uncoupling
