Abstract
Productivity and schedule reliability are two key objectives when designing, planning and controlling an enterprise’s internal supply chain. Productivity can be increased by implementing set-up optimised order sequencing, which reduces the time and costs required for set-ups. However, since planned end-of-orderprocessing dates are ignored with set-up optimised sequencing, it tends to cause increased lateness and thus poorer schedule reliability. Accordingly, enterprises must weigh the highest possible productivity against a high schedule reliability. In this paper, we develop a logistic model that can be used by enterprises to facilitate describing the impact of set-up optimised sequencing on a workstation’s lateness behaviour. This logistic model depicts the extent of the output lateness’ standard deviation as a function of the mean WIP, mean workstation output and the input lateness’ standard deviation when applying set-up optimised sequencing. It is thus possible to quantitatively describe the effects of set-up optimised sequencing on the logistic objective ‘schedule reliability’ and compare possible productivity gains.
