Determining Production Capacity Under the Consideration of a Multi-Stage BOM

Authors: , , ,

Abstract: This paper introduces a new approach for determining the production capacity in manufacturing systems or supply chains. The production capacity problem is solved when the following information is determined: how many parts can be produced at each resource and from each material, considering the given time span, the multi-stage bill of materials, the routing file and the demand mix based on the customer orders. The current model proposes a new approach in manipulating the already stated inputs by adopting the matrix calculus and data representation in order to obtain the desired outputs: the production capacity at material level and the loading level for each resource. By approaching the matrix calculus with the combination between the bill of materials and the routing file, the model reduces the calculus complexity. The opportunity of such a model is that the classic MRP data structure is directly manipulated with the purpose of obtaining the production capacity. The results are used in the rough-cut capacity planning, budgeting process and customer order confirmation. Also the facile integration in MRP systems is a vital point. The model was created also to serve any variety of manufacturing systems.
