Abstract

In this paper, a forecasting problem of production and maintenance plan optimization for random demand and single machine M1 on a finite horizon. The function rate of the machine M1 is depending on the production rate for each period of the forecasting horizon. In order to satisfy the customer, a subcontracting assures the rest of the production through machine M2 with transportation delay. An analytic formulation of the problem has been proposed using a sequentially computation of the optimal production plan for which an optimal preventive maintenance policy has been calculated based on minimal repair. Firstly, we find, the optimal production plans of principal and subcontracting machines, which minimizes the total production and inventory cost for the cases without and with returned products under service level and subcontracting transportation delay. Secondly, we determine a joint effective maintenance policy with the optimal production plan, which integrates the various constraints for the production rates, the transportation delay and the returned production deadline. Numerical results are presented to highlight the application of the developed approach and Sensitivity analysis shows the robustness of the model.
