Sammanfattning
Disasters in today's world result in a significant housing shortage that has a profound impact
on the society and countries affected. In addition, those harmed by natural disasters have
lost their employment opportunities and economic power. Neighboring nations taking in
refugees in camps and settlements from the nations affected by these disasters. Although
these camps offer shelter to those in need, it is not always easy or effective for them to
integrate into the local population. Localized factory-in-a-box facilities would therefore
have a significant impact on how well refugees integrate into society. Additionally, it would
be more practical to build portable houses, field hospitals, temporary schools, and other
infrastructure. The local population and refugees who are incompetent in terms of skills,
education, and language would also make up the labor force in these mobile factories.
Therefore, setting up factory-in-a-box facilities in nations that host large numbers of
refugees who are willing to work could help build humanitarian settlements. Turkey was
chosen as the location for Factory-in-a-Box because of the country's history of natural
disasters, demographics, physical infrastructure, and refugee camps. The establishment of a
factory-in-a-box solution in Turkey can provide temporary housing and jobs for those
affected by the disaster. The localization of a factory-in-a-box in Turkey is made possible
by extensive research on variables including incentives, the nation of origin of the brand,
and supplier accessibility. After conducting research on localization, industrialists and
academics were interviewed to learn more about the difficulties in localizing the bill of
materials, including the availability of raw materials, quality and the search for
environmentally friendly products, high inflation rates. Finally, a new raw material is
recommended by the implementation of the Pugh matrix and the results that were derived.
