| additional remarks | We introduce different hierarchical planning levels (strategic, tactical, operational) and planning problems of each planning level which arise in an production environment. In the beginning of the lecture, strategic planning problems such as site location planning are covered. Then, in the tactical planning level, we discuss questions concerning the infrastructure of production systems. In the second part of the lecture, operational planning decisions are treated. Amongst other things, we introduce demand forecasting techniques and examine master planning problems. After giving attention to material requirements planning, we proceed to production planning issues where we focus on lot sizing questions, machine scheduling and sequencing in flow lines. In order to deal with the arising decision problems we apply simple heuristics as well as simple linear programming and mixed integer programming models. |
