Tiivistelmä: | In the paper it is examined how the ability to augment capacity on an as-needed basis affects capacity planning. Optimal capacity planning can be done separately for each resource if it is feasible to augment all resources on an as-needed basis. Simulations indicate that simplifying capacity planning to focus on an expected bottleneck resource dominates resource-level or product-level capacity planning, when all resources impose hard contraints and the firm's product mix problem is significant. |
