An Application Of Linear Programming In Aggregate Production Planning With Certain Demand: The Case Study Scancom Company

Abstract

This thesis investigates a single objective Aggregate Production Planning (APP) problem with certain demand. Currently the company is having problems planning production to respond to changing certain demand. There is only main objective in this thesis considered which minimize total cost. By using linear programming concept to solve the production-planning problem especially for SCANCOM with local data. After develop the mathematical model and collecting data, we can use CPELX 12.10 to solve the problem. Finally, the result is a 14.87% reduction compared to the actual costs of the company and provides a more efficient planning solution for businesses with lower costs.
