| Abstract | This study deals with production scheduling problem at Nutifood Nutrition Food JSC (Nutifood). The optimization model is developed to schedule for a single production line at the instant milk powder (IMP) plant, located in Binh Duong Province, which produces over fifty percent of company sales value.
The objective is to determine the amount to be manufactured in IMP line in each cycle, and then optimizing production time of this line, so as to satisfy simultaneously the needs of sales and increase line efficiency. This model will help production planner staffs to derive quickly a schedule which can be considered as the best solution based on what data they have.
This model can be applied for other production lines which need to deal with time optimization problem under similar set of constraints. This study is one part in improving Nutifood production activities through mathematical models, thereby, provides opportunities for cost reduction and increased competitiveness. |
