Abstract: | An approach is presented for simultaneously determining both recorder intervals and planned lead times for realistic and planned lead times for realistic Materials Requirements Planning (MRP) systems with many items. Unlike previous approaches, this model explicitly considers commonality, non-instaneous production, multiple work centres (with multiple machines and with limited capacity), and queue inventory carrying cost. Four heuristic solution procedures for the non-linear integer optimization problem are proposed and compared with an exact branch-and-bound algorithm on a set of forty test problems. |
