  • Patent number: 12248896
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed including a planner having a processor and memory. The planner models a supply chain network over a planning horizon having one or more time buckets and a production line to produce one or more products using one or more campaign operations and one or more campaignable resources. The planner further formulates a supply chain master planning problem comprising a hierarchy of objective functions and one or more constraints and segments a campaign planning problem into three stages. The planner solves a first stage to determine prioritized production demands on campaignable buffers, solves a second stage to determine a timing and a sequence for allocating campaignable resources to campaignable buffers, and solves a third stage to determine a quantity of products to produce on campaignable resources.
