Abstract:

Job shops using infinite-loading and backward-scheduling MRP systems will complete some jobs out of order and/or tardy. This article uses data from such an operation to suggest a way to reduce the severity of such consequences which otherwise could build further aggregate tardiness downstream, due to shop floor culture. Results are compared on data from a medium-sized, multiproduct, multi-workcentre shop.
