This study is about an integrated procurement and transportation planning system for purchased components of a consumer-durables manufacturer. Due to transportation cost structures and demand characteristics our problem can be classified as a variant of the dynamic-demand joint replenishment problem. The problem is to determine the replenishment policy using the advantages of coordinated transportation of items that will minimize the sum of total inventory holding and tranportation costs over a finite planning horizon. A mathematical model is formulated for purchasing and transportation decisions for the purchased items using the advantage of joint transportation costs. A two-phased solution method is proposed in order to obtain a “good solution” for the problem. The proposed solution method is compared with the current practice for different problem instances using retrospective data and created data. As a result it is shown that proposed method decrease the total inventory and transportation cost of the system even though the first aggregate problem can not be solved to optimality.

Designing an information system for material management in engineer-to-order organizations
Dede, Erdoğan; Şen, Tayyar; Department of Industrial Engineering (2006)
In this thesis, an information system is designed and developed for engineer-to-order organizations to improve the traditional Bill-of-Material by handling variants of products and components efficiently. A database is developed to store the related information about inventories and configuration management in an effective way. The improved Bill-of-Material provides a common structure to access stored information for material management purposes. A model, based on network, is presented and included into the...
A decision support system for production planning and pre-cost estimation activities in an apparel company
Gökalp, Ebru; Şen, Tayyar; Department of Industrial Engineering (2010)
In this study, a specific decision support system is designed and developed for Production Planning and Marketing Department of an apparel company. The developed system involves two modules with user friendly interface or data input and query. The system is designed to provide support in the following fields of decision making; pre cost estimation, capacity planning, master production planning and production scheduling. A detailed analysis of the existing system is conducted and Microsoft Access is used for...
Comparison of the resource allocation cababilities of project management software packages in resource constrained project scheduling problems
Hekimoğlu, Özge; Serpil, Canan; Department of Industrial Engineering (2007)
In this study, results of a comparison on benchmark test problems are presented to investigate the performance of Primavera V.4.1 with its two resource allocation priority rules and MS Project 2003. Resource allocation capabilities of the packages are measured in terms of deviation from the upper bound of the minimum makespan. Resource constrained project scheduling problem instances are taken from PSPLIB which are generated under a factorial design from ProGen. Statistical tests are applied to the results ...
A case study : improvement of component placement sequence of a turret style smt machine
Çengel, Mehmet Savaş; Kandiller, Levent; Department of Industrial Engineering (2006)
This study aims to improve component placement sequencing of a number of PCBs produced on a turret style SMT machine. After modeling the problem and having found that an optimal solution to the real PCB problem is hard to be achieved because of the concurrent behavior of the machine and the PCB design parameters, two heuristics are developed by oversimplifying the problem down to TSP. Performance of the heuristics and the lower bounds is evaluated by comparing the results with the optimal solution for two s...
Capacity allocation problem in flexible manufacturing systems: branch and bound based approaches
ÖZPEYNİRCİ, SELİN; Azizoğlu, Meral (Informa UK Limited, 2009-01-01)
This study considers an operation assignment and capacity allocation problem that arises in flexible manufacturing systems. The machines have limited time and tool magazine capacities and the available tools are limited. Our objective is to maximise total weight of assigned operations. We develop a branch and bound algorithm that finds the optimal solutions and a beam search algorithm that finds high quality solutions in polynomial time.
