Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the report is to evaluate the possibilities of applying basic simulation models and the digital twin technology in supply chain design and to illustrate them with examples from the practice of a company from the food and beverage industry. The report briefly presents the place of supply chain design in the scope of decisions related to supply chain management, then considers simulation modeling and the digital twin technology as important tools for digitalization and optimization of the supply chain and illustrates their application in practice. Three simulation modeling and analysis methods are evaluated for their suitability to support decision making in various supply chain management problems and scenarios.
