“…They argue that, despite of these problems, it is possible to find an optimal solution to each situation by employing an order release control method. In addition, Zäpfel and Missbauer (1993a) give an overview of production planning and control concepts that aim at overcoming the deficiencies of traditional models such as MRP II. These include concepts like Optimized Production Technology (OPT), Just in Time Production Planning and Control (JIT-PPC) as well as production planning and control including progressive figures which provide an instrument for monitoring material flows employing a graphic or diagram, but do not include methods for capacity planning.…”

Lead times impact the performance of the supply chain significantly. Although there is a large literature concerning queuing models for the analysis of the relationship between capacity utilization and lead times, and there is a substantial literature concerning control and order release policies that take lead times into consideration, there have been only few papers describing models at the aggregate planning level that recognize the relationship between the planned utilization of capacity and lead times. In this paper we provide an in-depth discussion of the state-of-the art in this literature, with particular attention to those models that are appropriate at the aggregate planning level.

“…And, indeed this is what can be observed in practice. Known as the lead-time-syndrome [37], planners tend to increase lead times arbitrarily whenever they detect backorders or high work-in-process inventories. But, as a result most firms suffer from long makespans and large total holding costs.…”

“…Workload Control -a production planning and control concept specifically developed for job shops (Kingsman et al, 1989;Zäpfel & Missbauer, 1993;Kingsman & Hendry, 2002;Stevenson et al, 2005) that combines delivery time estimations during customer enquiry management with order release control (Thürer et al, 2014a) -is used as a starting point for this study. The concept has been shown to significantly improve the performance of job shops both through simulation (e.g.…”

This paper calls for a paradigm shift in the production control literature away from assuming due date setting and order release are two independent decision levels. When order release is controlled, jobs do not enter the shop floor directly but are retained in a pre-shop pool and released to meet certain performance targets. This makes the setting of accurate planned release dates -the point at which jobs transition from the pool to the shop floor -a key consideration when setting due dates. We develop a new approach to estimating planned release dates to be embedded in the Workload Control concept. Our approach is unique as it anticipates the release decision as part of the due date setting procedure. This makes a second independent release decision superfluous and avoids a major cause of tardiness -deviations between (i) the planned release date used when calculating the delivery time allowance and (ii) the actual, realized release date. Simulation is used to compare the performance of Workload Control using two decision levels with the new single-level approach where the release decision is anticipated when setting the due date. Performance improvements are shown to be robust to uncertainty in processing time estimates.
