Project description

The flexibility of working time (FTT) is a main instrument to achieve the flexibility of a productive system in the face of variations in demand. The FTT has different modalities, such as the annualization of working hours or working time accounts, and poses new problems with regard to the planning of working time and production. The general objective of the project is to extend and deepen the results of a previous project (DPI2001-2176: Organization of working time, with annualized hours, in industry and services) in terms of planning. Specifically:

  1. Establish a method and calculation instruments to determine the capacity required from the demand forecast.     
  2. Consider multiple scenarios when it comes to demand forecasting.     
  3. Establish planning models that explicitly incorporate the financial, fiscal and treasury management aspects.     
  4. Formalize the procedure and the replanning models.     
  5. Model and solve the planning problem with working hours accounts.
