Coordinating Multi-Period Capacity Allocation and Order Scheduling via Optimization and Simulation
This paper studies a multi-period production capacity allocation and order scheduling decision for manufacturing firms which seek to balance utilization, flexibility, stability and profitability. We consider a firm which must manage both make-to-stock and make-to-order decisions and design a coordination system to link the tactical capacity allocation with the operational oeder scheduling problems. The model consists of a simulation module and an optimization module.The former captures the allocation percentage, the MTS replenishment rules, and adjustment allowances, and the latter selects and schedules the stream of MTO orders. Through the study, the dynamic interactions between the tactical choices and operational activities are explored. By varying the parameters of the system, operational characteristics are observed and analyzed. The study results demonstrate that the coordination approach is viable and provides a prototype for further research for this vital decision problem.
