dc.description.abstract | The majority of new businesses seek to satisfy customer demand for product
quality while operating with minimal and reasonable expenses. Especially when
a startup company has limited capital to develop and focuses on a niche market
(in this case, the wine industry), stricter quality standards are required than ever
before. This study aims to achieve these two objectives. This paper proposes and
solves a model for optimizing the harvesting schedule using linear programming
in order to provide a complete picture of market success, some solutions from the
perspective of business acumen will be proposed alongside engineering solutions. | en_US |
