Oulu University Hospital (OUH) is considering a partial replacement of a human-based material transportation system with an automated guided vehicle system (AGVS) in the interior parts of the hospital. Before the investment decision is made, however, it is useful to evaluate the feasibility of the superseding system. The research objective of this thesis is to study the operational feasibility of the proposed AGVS at OUH. Feasibility is studied through a discrete-event simulation model (DES) by analyzing system performance in 22 system configurations that differ in input data and parameters. The conclusion of the results is that the proposed AGVS is operationally feasible in fleet sizes in the range of 26-32 vehicles. The feasible ran...
