Tiivistelmä: | In this paper, we study the capacity allocation problem faced by make-to order manufacturing firms encountering expected total demand in excess of available capacity. Specifically, we focus on "firms" manufacturing short-life-cyckle or seasonal products such as high fashion apparel. Using a decision-theory-based approach, we develop a capacity allocation policy that allows such firms to discriminate between two classes of products (one yielding a higher profit contribution per unit of capacity allocated to it than the other), resulting in selective rejection of orders for the class with the lower unit contribution. |
