3. THE PROCESS OF AGGREGATE PLANNING

Assume you are the operations manager of a firm that carries a single family of products. To obtain a unit of the family we need 1.5 hours (standard hours) of workforce and each worker’s shift is 8 h. a day. At this moment, December, the workforce of the firm is 150 workers (50 permanent and 100 temporary) and, although the security stock desired is 500 units, the available stock is zero.

DATA: 1.5 hours per unit (standards h) Worker’s shift 8h a day per Workforce 150 workers

50 permanent 100 temporary

Security stock desired 500 units Available stock 0

Cost information:• Materials per unit of product: 5,000 m.u.• Standard hour of regular time labor: 1,000 m.u.• Standard hour of overtime labor: 1,500 m.u.• Standard hour of idle time: 1,100 m.u.• Hiring: 100,000 m.u./worker• Layoff of a temporary worker: 150,000 m.u.• Subcontracting cost per unit: 1,000 m.u., over the regular production cost

of one unit.• Inventory or carrying cost: 200 m.u./unit and month. Cim = Ciu (Iem +

Ibm)/2• Back order cost: 1,500 m.u./ unit and month.

Other factors that need to be considered to develop an aggregate planning, are the company policies: • There are three shifts and the maximum number of workers that can work

simultaneously is 50. Therefore, there is a maximum of 1,200 h/day (150 workers x 8 h/day and worker).

• The maximum number of overtime hours allowed is 10% of the hours available in regular time.

• Permanent workers cannot be laid off.• All the costs are linear functions.• The daily demand, within each month, is uniform and continuous.

Additional information obtained from client portfolios

The demand forecast needs to

be corrected using this information

Orders already placed by the clients in the first two month

Demand that has not been satisfied from previous periods and that need to be

satisfied as soon as possible, so they need to be considered as real demand for

The same way for the remaining months. VARIATION IN THE WORKFORCE =

Difference between the number of workers in this month and the previous one.

If positive, it implies hiring. If negative, it implies laying off.

COST OF BACKORDER =

APR: Workers needed: 47

Permanent workers: 50

Therefore we have 3 workers in idle time:

3 workers * 20 days * 8 h./day and work. =

480 h. (idle)

COST OF IDLE TIME (1,100 m.u./h.):

480 h. * 1,100 m.u./h. = 528 t.m.u.

MAY: hours: 7*22*8 = 1,232; cost:1,232*1,100 = 1,355.2 t.m.u.

JUN: hours: 5*21*8 = 840; cost: 840* 1,100 = 924 t.m.u.

COST OF IDLE TIME=

We will have idle time everytime we have rounding of workers

JAN: Hours with current workforce

141 work. * 20 days * 8 h./day and work. =

22,560 h.

Hours regular production: 22,500 h.

Hours of idle time: 22,560 – 22,500 = 60 h.

COST OF IDLE TIME (1,100 m.u./h.):

ABR: 50*20*8 - 7,500 = 500;

Factors to take into account:

Frequent layoffs could generate:

Insecurity.

Decrease in motivation.

Decrease in work satisfaction, and therefore, in productivity.

It may affect to the predictions made when elaborating the plan.

Strategies to obtain an aggregate plan

Pure (one objective)

Level Strategy

Mixed (multiple objectives)

Objective: maintaining a constant output rate, production rate and therefore constant workforce level over the planning horizon.

Factors to take into account to satisfy the necessary production when using just regular production is not possible:

Cost of regular production:1,000 m.u./h. x 1.5 h./un. = 1,500 m.u./un.

Backordering costs 1,500 m.u./(un. month)and a decrease in the customer service level

Subcontracting leads to an incremental cost of 1,000 m.u./u.n.

Production on overtime leads to an incremental cost of:

Therefore, if there is lack of capacity, we have to use the alternative with lower incremental cost with respect to the regular production unit cost:

First, we will produce on overtime. Secondly, subcontracting. The last option, backordering.

Using the hiring and layoff rationally

We will maintain a constant workforce of 52 workers to avoid the cost of hiring and layoff…

in April, May, June, July, August and September

The remaining months we will use variation in the workforce if possible, avoiding the overtime production and subcontracting.

40

We start by laying off 9 workers and staying with 141 workers needed to produce 15,000 un. required in JAN and FEB

In MAR we layoff 55 workers (variation of the workforce,141-86) and we keep 86 workers to produce 10,000 units needed in that month.

In APR, MAY, JUN, JUL, AUG and SEP we layoff 34 workers and level the workforce with 52 workers (86-34) to face the total demand (or necessary production) in such interval (35,000 un.)(*)

In OCT we hire 42 workers, having then a workforce of 94 (52+42) workers needed to satisfy the 10,000 un. of production of that month.

In NOV we hire 35 workers, having a total of 129 (94+35) workers, although a priori we need 134 workers to produce the 15.000 un. required that month which would require to hire 40 workers. The remaining units of production needed 15,000 un. -14,448 un. (21,672 h./1.5 h./un.), will be covered with available inventory, 2,228 (Iim)-1,676 (Ifm) =552, and therefore in DEC inventory will be 0.

The lack of production will be covered using overtime, and if it is not possible, subcontracting.
