Q

General properties of Uncapacitated Lot-Sizing Model (LS-U)

A

Single-item, single-level, uncapacitated

Minimize total cost
Production cost (fixed + variable)
Inventory cost per unit in inventory at the end of each period

Satisfy all demand

Backlogging not allowed

No production capacity (infinite)

Q

State the LS-U

A

Sets:
T = {0, . . . ,t, . . . , n}: discrete time periods
Parameters:
pt
: unit production cost in period t
qt
: fixed production cost in period t
ht
: unit inventory cost in period t
dt
: demand in period t
Decision variables:
xt
: production lot size in period t
yt
: binary variable for period t (yt = 1 if xt > 0)
st
: inventory at the end of the period t

(LS-U) min sum (pt xt + qt yt + ht st) for t∈T :t≥1
st−1 + xt = dt + st t ∈ T : t ≥ 1 (2)
s0 = sn = 0 (3)
xt ≤ Mt yt t ∈ T : t ≥ 1 (4)
xt ≥ 0 t ∈ T : t ≥ 1 (5)
st ≥ 0 t ∈ T (6)
yt ∈ {0, 1} t ∈ T : t ≥ 1 (7)

Q

General properties of Master production scheduling Model (MPS)

A

Multi-item, single level, capacitated lot-sizing model

Production of a set of items (finished products)

Short-term horizon (at least total production cycle)

For each item, the model is the same as the LS-U

The items production plans are linked: capacity restrictions and common resources

Q

Make-to-stock (MTS)

A

Make-to-stock (MTS): independent demand must be already in stock
All procurement and production activities in anticipation of the demand (demand
forecasts)
Ideal for standard products, little variety or diversity (fast-moving consumer goods)

Q

Make-to-order (MTO) or Assemble-to-order (ATO):

A

Some activities are performed after the external ordering

Delivery lead-time: time promised to customers for delivery

At the time of ordering: enough raw materials or semi-finished products in inventory

Remaining production lead-time ≤ commercial lead-time

Q

Aspects of the MRP

A

1) Independent demand over the planning horizon d-i_t

2) Bill of materials (BOM) to compute dependent demand

3) Procurement and production lead-times (LTs)

4) Routing of components

5) Capacity of resources

6) Inventory records

7) Planning rules

19
Q

Includes of the Independent demand over the planning horizon d
i_t

A

demand from customers

spare parts demand

demands from the distribution
System or other facilities

20
Q

Procurement and production lead-times (LTs)

A

Procurement and production cannot be performed instantaneously: the BOM
includes LTs

Total time needed to complete orders, preparation, administration, waiting,
production, control tests, delivery (integer number of periods)

In MRP model, LTs constant over times and independent of the order size (input)

21
Q

Link LTs and MRP

A

The procurement or production LT is modeled in (2) by γ
i

The number of time periods n ≥ the sum of γ
i
along any path in the BOM graph

γ
i
(planning)! = production lead-time

22
Q

Routing of components and link to MRP

A
23
Q

Link Capacity of resources to the MRP model

A

Link capacity of resources and MRP (1) – (8): The net capacity of resource k in
time period t is modeled in (5) by L
kt

24
Q

Gross requirement:

A

total consumption (internal and external) of the components over
time

25
Q

The inventory status of each component

A

on-hand inventory: physically in the warehouse

allocated inventory: part of the on-hand inventory, but reserved for production orders
already released

back orders: overdue or late component orders which will be delivered soon

on-order inventory: already ordered, but not yet received (scheduled receipt time period is
known)

26
Q

3 different measures for inventory

A

Available inventory = on-hand inventory - allocated inventory

Inventory position = available inventory + on-order inventory - back orders

Net requirements = gross requirement - available inventory - on-order inventory

27
Q

Planning rules and link to MRP

A
28
Q

What are the phases of the single item decomposition planning process?

A

1 Master Production Scheduling (MPS)
2 Rough Cut Capacity Planning (RCCP)
3 Final Assembly Scheduling (FAS)
4 Material Requirement Planning (MRP)
5 Capacity Requirement Planning (CRP)

Supply Chain (SC) definition

A

A supply chain (SC) is a set of organizations linked by materials, information and
financial flows that produce value in the form of products and services for the
ultimate customer

38
Q

A Supply Chain modeled as a network composed of….

A
  • vendor nodes
  • plant nodes
  • distribution center nodes
  • market nodes
  • transportation arcs
39
Q

Supply chain planning is an integrated planning approach used to organize the SC
activities: (name the three integration dimensions)

A

Functional integration of the primary and support activities

Inter-temporal integration (strategic, tactical, operational planning horizons)

Spatial (räumlich) integration
