Real-time capable Production Planning and Control in the Order Management of builtto- order Companies

Abstract

In this paper, an innovative approach for a production planning and control, fitting the specific requirements of built-toorder companies, will be shown. The model is based on a cybernetic structure, which follows the restrictions of changeability and viability. As the basic part of the model, a general closed-loop will be designed under consideration of real-time efforts. In a next step, the general closed-loop will be validated by modeling and implementing a precise closed-loop for a dynamic ‘Delivery Date Determination and Control’ for built-to-order companies.
