Course Description

Application of quantitative and heuristic methods to problems of production, material, and capacity planning. Mathematical models for inventory systems, sequencing, and scheduling. Assembly line balancing methods. Just-in-time manufacturing.

Topics

  • Supply chain inventory management
  • Development and use of inventory models for deterministic and/or stochastic demand
  • Single-machine, two-machine, and multiple-machine scheduling problems
  • Flow shop scheduling and job shop scheduling
  • Master Production Schedule (MPS)
  • Material Requirements Planning (MRP) and MRP-II
  • Capacity requirements planning and load schedules
  • Just-in-Time (JIT) manufacturing and its benefits

Learning Outcomes

The student, upon completion of this course, will be able to:

  • Describe (identify/write) the various components that make up the manufacturing planning and control system and the interaction among them.
  • Develop the models that are applicable for supply chain inventory management, including those for quantity discounts, safety stocks, and order quantity and reorder point interactions.
  • Develop the algorithms that are appropriate for solving single-machine, two-machine, parallel-machines and flow shop scheduling problems.
  • Show how (i) the material requirement plans, manufacturing resource plans, and capacity requirement plans can be developed, and (ii) lot sizing decisions can be made for a manufacturing system.
  • Describe the issues concerning just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing and its benefits.
