Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to study the integrated physical material management (including suppliers’ selection, order allocation, and multi-mode inbound transportation) and multi-site aggregate production planning with direct shipping. A multi-objective programming model is developed to determine the material purchasing plan, transportation modes, and production-related decisions in a (non-overlapped) multi-period tactical planning horizon. An interactive algorithm is developed, based on the interval expected value of fuzzy numbers and satisfaction degree, to obtain compromise solutions. Finally, numerical studies show the usefulness of our proposed framework in the clothing supply chain.
