Theoretical approach for the control of the make to order manufacturing system Part 1

Abstract

In practice, decisions on acceptance of order and production planning are often considered separately. Sales Department is responsible for accepting orders, while the production department in charge of production plans for implementation of orders accepted. Acceptance decisions are often made without involving the control of the production department or incomplete information on the basis of available production capacity. The paper is a review of make-to-order (MTO) manufacturing system control.
