Presents a linear goal programming (LGP) model, which can be used to derive an optimal daily production schedule for JIT production systems. Also provides an explanation of how a detailed post-optimal LGP analysis can enable a decision maker to examine the effects of production scheduling in a JIT ‘mixed-model’ production environment. To illustrate the informational efficacy of the proposed JIT-based LGP model, presents an illustrative example.
