Introduction to Aggregate Planning
• Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based on predicted
demand for aggregate units.
![Page 3: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Hierarchy of Planning • Forecast of aggregate demand over time horizon
• Aggregate Production Plan: determine aggregate production and workforce levels over time horizon
• Master Production Schedule: Disaggregate the aggregate plan and determine per-item production levels
• Materials Requirements Planning: Detailed schedule for production/replenishment activities
![Page 4: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Prototype Aggregate Planning Example
The washing machine plant is interested in determining work force and production levels for the next 8 months.
Forecasted aggregate demands for Jan-Aug. are: 420, 280, 460, 190, 310, 145, 110, 125.
Starting inventory at the end of December is 200 and the firm would like to have 100 units on hand at the end of August.
Find monthly production levels.

Step 1: Determine “net” demand.

Constant Work Force Plan
Suppose that we are interested in determining a production plan that doesn’t change the size of the workforce over the planning horizon. How would we do that?
![Page 7: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Monthly Production = 1940/8 = 242.2 or rounded to 243/month. But: there are stockouts.
![Page 8: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
How can we have a constant work force plan with no stockouts?
Using the graph, find a straight line that lies completely above the cumulative net demand curve:
Constant Work Force Plan With No Stockouts
0
500
1000
1500
2000
2500
3000
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
![Page 9: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
From the previous graph, we see that the cum. net demand curve is crossed at period 3, so that monthly production is 960/3 = 320. Ending inventory each month is found from:
Month Cum. Net. Dem. Cum. Prod. Invent.
1(Jan) 220 320 100
2(Feb) 500 640 140
3(Mar) 960 960 0
4(Apr.) 1150 1280 130
5(May) 1460 1600 140
6(June) 1605 1920 315
7(July) 1715 2240 525
8(Aug) 1940 2560 620
![Page 10: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
But - may not be realistic for several reasons:
• It may not be possible to achieve the production level of 320 unit/mo with an integer number of workers
• Since all months do not have the same number of workdays, a constant production level may not translate to the same number of workers each month.
![Page 11: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
To overcome these shortcomings:
• Assume number of workdays per month is given• K factor computed where K = # of aggregate units
produced by one worker in one day
• Suppose that we are told that over a period of 40 days, the plant had 38 workers who produced 520 units. It follows that:
• K= 520/(38*40) = .3421
= average number of units produced by one worker in one day.
![Page 12: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Computing Constant Work Force
Assume we are given the following # working days per month: 22, 16, 23, 20, 21, 17, 18, 10. March is still critical month.
Cum. net demand thru March = 960.
Cum # working days = 22+16+23 = 61.
Find 960/61 = 15.7377 units/day implies 15.7377/.3421 = 46 workers required.

Addition of Costs
• Holding Cost (per unit per month): $8.50• Hiring Cost per worker: $800• Firing Cost per worker: $1,250• Payroll Cost: $75/worker/day• Shortage Cost: $50 unit short/month
![Page 15: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Cost Evaluation of Constant Work Force Plan
• Assume that the work force at end of Dec was 40.
• Cost to hire 6 workers: 6*800 = $4800• Inventory Cost: accumulate ending inventory:
(126+98+0+. . .+687) = 2093. Add in 100 units netted out in Aug = 2193.
• Hence Inv. Cost = 2193*8.5=$18,640.50• Payroll cost: ($75/worker/day) (46 workers)
(167days) = $576,150• Cost of plan: $576,150 + $18,640.50 + $4800 =
$599,590.50

Cost Reduction in Constant Work Force Plan
![Page 17: ISEN 315 Spring 2011 Dr. Gary Gaukler. Introduction to Aggregate Planning Goal: To plan gross work force levels and set firm-wide production plans, based.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062713/56649ccd5503460f94997af8/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Zero Inventory Plan (Chase Strategy)
• Change the workforce each month in order to reduce ending inventory to nearly zero by matching the workforce with monthly demand as closely as possible.
• This is accomplished by computing the # units produced by one worker each month (by multiplying K by #days per mo.) and then taking net demand each month and dividing by this quantity.
• The resulting ratio is rounded up and possibly adjusted downward.
