Joint optimization of production, maintenance, and distribution planning in a multi-site environment
摘要
This study examines the challenges of optimizing production, maintenance, and transportation planning in a multi-site environment, where each site faces unique demands and potential operational failures. The research highlights the importance of integrating these critical functions to enhance system performance. The primary objective is to develop a comprehensive approach that minimizes costs while ensuring high service levels and system reliability. To achieve this, a novel methodology using random search methods and genetic algorithms for production planning is proposed, coupled with a collaborative distribution strategy that mitigates shortages across sites. The study also introduces a preventive maintenance model that considers how production rates affect failure rates, optimizing maintenance planning. The proposed integrated optimization model led to a cost reduction of approximately
