Abstract
En 中文
This paper integrates a clearing function (CF)-based release planning approach into Material Requirements Planning (MRP) to address its limitations in modelling capacity constraints and dynamic lead times. The proposed optimisation model replaces MRP’s backward scheduling step while preserving its overall structure. Performance is evaluated through simulation experiments on two flow shop systems that explore a range of demand uncertainties and utilisation levels. Computational results show that the proposed approach is capable of yielding significant improvements over the conventional backward scheduling approach, due to its ability to compute planned lead times for individual production orders as opposed to BOM items.
