Operations planning model for supply chains of innovative products

Abstract

This paper presents a
mathematical programming
model for production planning
of innovative products with
known & stable processes, with
two or more supply
alternatives, and with two or
more levels at the BOM. The
model includes the possibility
of postponement and also
several transport means, costs
and times, finite capacity on
each production, storage and
transport resource. The model
also includes the possibility of
considering different demand
scenarios.
