Production Scheduling Improvements in an Automotive Sector Company
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper attempts to overcome the fluctuations occurring in demand of the components in an automotive sector company. Resource and time being the strict constraints, the production is not able to match the pace of the fluctuating demand. So, we introduce some production schedules that help in meeting out the required demand. The merits and demerits of the approaches are also highlighted. Keywords—Production scheduling, Demand rise, Capacity constrained resource (CCR), Overtime.
