Abstract
Disclosed are embodiments of a production planning method, system and program storage device. The embodiments calculate and compare, in sequence, a first running cumulative sum of the average item quantity per a regular time interval for all demands within a specified time period and a second running cumulative sum of specific item quantities per the same regular interval for only high priority demands within the same time period. When a given entry in the first running cumulative sum is less than a corresponding entry in the second running cumulative sum, demand leveling is performed. Comparing and demand leveling are iteratively repeated until no entries in the first running cumulative sum, as updated, are less than corresponding entries in the second running cumulative sum. The results can then be used for production planning in order to achieve near-capacity manufacturing and meet at least the high priority customer demands.
