Time Delivery Schedule

The students used the Gantt chart to plan and monitor the project progress. Each team prepared a detailed list of tasks, milestones and deliverables. A timeline was constructed based on the completion time, delivery schedule and estimated time needed to complete each tasks. The Gantt chart enabled the students to identify dependency between various tasks and recognize potential bottlenecks in the project. The critical tasks, scheduled tasks, completion dates and delivery time were clearly labeled. Each week the teams met to discuss and update the Gantt chart, as old tasks were completed and new one started. 

For any FISC there exist two major markets for packed fruit regional (RPFC) and overseas (OPFC). Concentrated juice only possesses the overseas market (OCJC). Two types of demands are considered. A fixed demand is conformed by the amounts of packed fruit and juice agreed with the different clients before the fruit season. For such compromises there is a specific time delivery schedule. An eventual demand represents the possibility of allocating the excess of goods at a lower price in any period (X15andX16). 

One aspect of a contract often overlooked is shipment of finished goods. You have ascertained the delivery schedule, the place of delivery, but how do you intend to ship it by road, rail, ship, or air. It makes a lot of difference to the costs. Also delivery dates often mean the date on which the shipment arrives not the date it leaves. You therefore need to build into your schedules an appropriate lead time for shipping by the means agreed to. If you are late then you may need to employ speedier means but that will... 

In order that your subcontractors can achieve 100% on-time delivery, you need to provide the same type of information and make the same commitments as your customer will to enable you to meet 100% on-time delivery to them (see Part 2 Chapter 15). You therefore need to inform your subcontractors of your production schedule and release orders to your subcontractors based on that schedule. If operating under a ship-to-stock system, you will need a means of notifying your subcontractor when stocks drop to the minimum level. Under such arrangements, you do not need a purchase order for every delivery as one order specifying the shipment rate will suffice. A good maxim to work by is ... 

The cases of peak delivery at 10 a.m. (Fig. 10.5b) or 10 p.m. (Fig. 10.5d) are intermediate between the two preceding cases. Overlap between the peak of 5-FU and the peak of cells in S phase is only partial, but it is still greater in the case of the peak at 10 a.m., so that this pattern is the second most toxic, followed by the circadian delivery centered around 10 p.m. The comparison of the four panels Fig. 10.5a-d explains the results of Fig. 10.4a on the marked differences in cytotoxic effects of the four 5-FU circadian delivery schedules. The use of the cell cycle automaton helps clarify the dynamic bases that underlie the distinctive effects of the peak time in the circadian pattern of anticancer drug delivery. 

Announcement. An established product with existing markets is introduced by a company making it for the first time and in competition with established manufacturers. The purpose here is to direct demand to the announced product on the basis of merits, such as purity, and certain advantages, such as technical service facilities and delivery schedules.

History has a tendency to repeat itself, which in this case meant that due to a compressed delivery schedule, there was only very limited time available to gain a good understanding of the new route and, furthermore, to improve on some of the underperforming steps. A quick scale-up to satisfy the needs for API, to initiate clinical phase I studies, resulted in a yield of only 0.3%, which did not compare favorably to the laboratory yield of 5%. This batch produced 2 kg of robaizotan of outstanding quality with an enantiomeric purity >99% ee. The major flaws in the chemistry (expressed as poor yields) occurred exactly where they had been projected as mentioned previously, and it was obvious from working on pilot scale that virtually all steps were hampered by low volume efficiency (amount of material produced per unit reactor volume) and complicated workup procedures. 

After the system selects the best transportation mode, it determines the best travel path, which loads to deliver first, and which orders should go on the trucks first—an important consideration since customers do not want to hold inventory, making scheduling much more significant due to the pressure to meet on-time delivery (Dilger 1998). 

Since becoming more sophisticated in the past few years because of real-time optimization capabilities (determining the best tender, given pricing and volume discounts, delivery schedules, and consignee), TMS packages will continue to be connected to a company s other business systems. 

Rejects are costly Even if you can recycle the material, you cannot recover the cost of the labor, machine time, or fuel put into the rejected piece. All have to be bought again. If the job is on a rush delivery schedule, you cannot buy the lost time again. More than one business has gone down the drain because they let minor dips in product quality slip through to their customers, and the customers never came back therefore, add reputation as another cost of rejects. 

For shippers and transportation providers, an important metric is the total supply chain cost of transportation transactions. This total supply chain cost includes the effect on both transport costs and associated inventory costs. In addition, measures of performance include delivery lead time, percent on-time delivery or delivery within time windows, and schedule flexibility to accommodate shipment reschedules. Given the large volume of shipments that occur on dedicated contract trucking, there is scope for use of information, coordination agreements, and associated capadty commitments to improve performance across a supply chain. Competing carriers sell bundled routes to minimize shipper costs.

The technical and economic problems could have been due to incorrect specifications, long delivery schedules, non-availahility of some critical components or spares in time, mistakes made in erection or commissioning, faulty equipments having frequent breakdowns created difficulties during operation and maintenance, and sufficiently trained workforce not appointed in time. 

We first describe a basic model which will be used in this section as a reference point when we review results in this problem class. Most problems studied in this area have a similar structure and share many assumptions made in this basic model. A manufacturer produces one product on a single production line at a constant rate for a customer with a constant demand rate for the product which must be satisfied without backlog. At the manufacturer s end, there is a fixed setup cost for each production run, and a linear inventory holding cost. At the customer s end, there is a linear inventory holding cost. Between the manufacturer and the customer, there is a fixed delivery cost per order delivered from the manufacturer to the customer, regardless of the order size. The problem is to find a joint cyclic production and delivery schedule such that the total cost per unit time, including production setup costs, inventory costs at both the manufacturer and the customer, and transportation costs, is minimized over an infinite planning horizon.
