Production Planning and Scheduling

Production planning and scheduling in international logistics and supply chain management involve organizing the manufacturing process to meet demand efficiently. It entails determining what products to make, in what quantities, and when to produce them. Effective planning ensures resources are allocated wisely, inventory levels are optimized, and production aligns with delivery timelines across global markets. Scheduling specifies the timeline for each production step, aiming to minimize delays and costs while maximizing productivity. Ultimately, it ensures that products are available for customers when and where they need them, facilitating smooth global trade operations.
