Optimal Production Planning

Meer over het boek

The book addresses the ongoing challenge faced by Consumer-Packaged Goods companies in balancing efficiency and agility. It introduces a Mixed Integer Linear Programming model aimed at minimizing costs while navigating operational constraints and current supply chain inputs. The findings advocate for a hybrid production planning strategy that combines level-production and demand-chase approaches, leading to substantial cost savings. This strategy emphasizes optimizing the entire supply chain rather than relying on departmental budget management, ultimately enhancing overall efficiency.
