Abstract

The Decision Makers in the production organizations, which produce multiple different products at the same time, set the priorities for what the organization desires to produce. This priority is sorting the products in order to schedule the production based on these priorities. The production organizations receive a huge number of orders from different customers, each order contains many products with close delivery dates. The organization aims to produce multiple different products at the same time, in order to satisfy all customers by delivering all orders at the right time. This study will propose a method to prioritize the production to produce a multiple different products at the same time, the production lines will produce multiple different products. This method will prioritize the products using Multi Criteria Decision Making technique, and prioritize the production operations using a new algorithm called Algorithm for Prioritization of Production Operations. In addition, the study will provide an algorithm for production scheduling using the production priority calculated based on the proposed method. The study will also compare the scheduling based on the priority rules and based on the proposed method through total production time and the variety of products produced.
