Job scheduling and packing optimization in warehouse : on-time order delivery and incentive for full-pack order
Abstract:
The responsiveness of the company depends on many factors, and, in the warehouse, order scheduling and inventory handling cost are two of the most important factors. According to the fact that changes in warehouse operation have some risks and investment, the optimization model aims to minimize the make span of the orders in the warehouse to support the decision making while also to see the feasibility. Moreover, there is a waste in the operation when the order does not come in a batch or packed size, thus, the workers need to unpack and repack again. Therefore, this project aims to help the warehouse to have more responsiveness and minimize the cost from the waste by efficiently scheduling the orders and giving a suitable incentive to the customers when ordering in a full pack. The method of approach used is proposing the model with an optimization in IBM ILOG CPLEX software. The result is the model that can be used to solve the order scheduling and to indicate a suitable incentive for the full-pack order
