Multi-Objective Model In Aggregate Production Planning: A Case Study Of Scancom Vietnam Plant

Abstract

This study develops an aggregate production planning model for ScanCom, a wooden furniture manufacturing company, to address challenges in demand volatility. The objective of this research is to create a flexible and adaptive production plan that efficiently utilizes resources while meeting customer needs and optimizing profit. A multi objective aggregate production planning model is proposed, considering production costs, workforce change costs, and overtime utilization. The research covers six products manufactured at ScanCom's plant, based on forecasted demand for 2023. This research aims to provide decision-makers with an effective production strategy and implementation suggestions. The proposed model can be further enhanced and applied to future scenarios, contributing to the improvement of production systems.
