Forecasting automotive spare parts in terms of demands and budgeting is considered one
of the most critical challenges for the motor industry globally. The accuracy of forecasting works as a fundamental prerequisite for strategic planning and decision-making in several departments within any corporation, including operation, procurement, maintenance, and inventory management. The amount of extracted data from processes and procedures has exponentially augmented. When these data are processed and evaluated, it yields valuable information and knowledge when patterns emerge which improves future forecasting ability. Over decades, many researchers had proposed methods in order to eliminate the associated projection in forecasting uncertainty. This work addresses the deployment of artificial neural networks (feed-forward neural network) for the development of a predictive maintenance model for automotive spare parts demands and prices, which is considered vital for automotive aftermarket trade in Jordan. By relying on 15 independent variables comprises both vehicles and spare part parameters gathered from different official governorate departments, private businesses and even captured professionals and owners’ perceptions. The findings reveal promising results in minimizing forecasting uncertainty from traditional methods, two artificial feed-forward neural networks (multi- inputs and single output) were created. For price forecasting, a model with a single hidden layer and 14 hidden neurons was developed. Whereas a single hidden layer and embed with 5 hidden neurons was shown the best performance for the demand forecasting. The study limitations as the study targeted certain types and generations of HEVs, which may lead to a decline in system enrolment in advance. As well as, measuring failure rate based on the questionnaire findings may resulted in a less accurate results.
يعتبر التنبؤ بقطع غيار السيارات من حيث الطلبات والميزانية أحد أهم التحديات التي تواجه صناعة السيارات على مستوى العالم. تعمل دقة التنبؤ كشرط أساسي مسبق للتخطيط الاستراتيجي واتخاذ القرار في العديد من الإدارات داخل أي شركة ، بما في ذلك التشغيل والمشتريات والصيانة وإدارة المخزون. ازدادت كمية البيانات المستخرجة من العمليات والإجراءات بشكل كبير.عندما تتم معالجة هذه البيانات وتقييمها ، فإنها تنتج معلومات ومعرفة قيمة عندما تظهر الأنماط مما يحسن القدرة على التنبؤ في المستقبل. على مدى عقود ، اقترح العديد من الباحثين طرقًا من أجل القضاء على الإسقاط المرتبط في التنبؤ بعدم اليقين. يتناول هذا العمل نشر الشبكات العصبية الاصطناعية( شبكة التغذية الأمامية العصبية) لتطوير نموذج الصيانة التنبؤية لمتطلبات قطع غيار السيارات وأسعارها ، والتي تعتبر حيوية لتجارة ما بعد البيع للسيارات في الأردن. جرت الدراسة من خلال الاعتماد على 15 متغيرًا مستقلًا ، يشمل كل من خصائص المركبات و قطع الغيار التي تم جمعها من مختلف إدارات المحافظات الرسمية والشركات الخاصة وحتى تصورات المهندسين و الفنيين العاملين في قطاع صيانة السيارات. تكشف نتائج الدراسة عن مستقبل واعد في تقليل نسبة الخط أ في التنبؤ من الطرق التقليدية ، حيث تم إنشاء شبكتين عصبونيتين اصطناعيتين )متعددة المدخلات ومخرج واحد) للتنبؤ بالأسعار و الطلب. تم تطوير نموذج بطبقة واحدة مخفية و 14 خلية عصبية مخفية.في حين تم عرض طبقة مخفية واحدة ومضمنة مع 5 خلايا عصبية مخفية أفضل أداء للتنبؤ بالطلب. تعتبر هذه الدارسة مقيدة بعدة عوامل حيث استهدفت الدراسة أنواعًا وأجيالًا معينة من السيارات الهجينة ، مما قد يؤدي إلى انخفاض فعالية استخدام
النظام مسبقًا. كذلك ، قد يؤدي قياس معدل الفشل بناءً على نتائج الاستبيان إلى نتائج أقل دقة.
