Abstract
The problems which frequently challenge the management of a supply chain including uncertainty of customers' demands, high inventory levels and costs, inaccurate due date estimation, and slow response to customer inquiries are addressed. Lead time reduction is a critical issue which enables manufacturers to solve problems. The proposed extended master production scheduling (MPS) system, developed using Internet technology, can be deployed in a supply chain environment. A case study is used to illustrate the implementation process of the system and accompanying benefits. © Springer-Verlag London Limited 2009.
