Synopsis of Course Contents This course will provide students with a complete description of the subject
area of manufacturing planning and control, and will be supplemented with
the traditional ways to look at different planning processes, methods and
theories in terms of their characteristics and applicability, both on a concep-
tual and methodological level and with respect to the planning environment
in which they will be applied.
The course will start with an introduction to the manufacturing company and
environment; follow by approaches in manufacturing planning and control.
Then, the course will offer the fundamental on manufacturing planning and
control performance, basic data for manufacturing operations, planning
parameters and variables, forecasting, customer order management, sales
and operations planning (SOP) and master production scheduling (MPS).
Finally, this course will cover the detailed planning and execution, including
discussion on state-of-the-art approach in contrast to traditional application.
