Abstract

Current production planning and control systems of manufacturing companies do not include future-oriented maintenance strategies that allow the precise prediction of maintenance tasks. This results in inefficient production processes due to unforeseeable machine downtimes, fluctuating lead times and a high number of rush orders. An approach for the integration of anticipative maintenance strategies within a production planning and control model is developed in order to increase the flexibility and quality of production planning. Based on an anticipative maintenance strategy, the model derives measures for minimizing the overall production costs as well as maintenance related costs over a finite planning horizon.
