Need for custom-made intergrated management operations planning systems
(Engineering Research Unit, Faculty of Engiennring, University of Moratuwa, 1995-03) Dassanayake, VPC; Nanayakkara, LDJF; Dias, WPS
By surveying some of the research that has been carried out, a need for a systematic approach to the problem formulation and solution development in designing custom-made integrated production planning systems has been justified. Some of the research work is critically analysed. The authors propose a General approach which includes steps directing a Planning Manager to build up his own model. It basically consists of how it should be built with the procedural sequence which should be followed and he should be guided how he can select the mathematical models wherever required. These should be well explained with examples. But the user should be given the flexibility to do it on his own and to develop mathematical models wherever required . Past research can be used as tools to incorporate in the methodology and it is expected that case studies can verify the validity of the model.
