Scheduling
For both the restaurant and the cell phone manufacturer, meeting their
customer requirements applies scheduling tools and techniques which
enable them to also meet their own business objectives, such as
minimising cost, improving quality and enhancing their reputation as a
reliable supplier. This usually requires carefully prioritising and
balancing sometimes conflicting objectives. For example, the cell phone
company reduce the frequency of changing from producing one phone
type to another, reducing downtime and increasing the number of
phones produced but also making some customers wait longer for
some of their phone types.
