S Curve

The objective of this paper is to establish the usefulness of modified s-curve membership function in a limited supply production planning problem with continuous variables. In this respect, fuzzy parameters of linear programming are modeled by non-linear membership functions such as s-curve function. This paper begins with an introduction and construction of the modified s-curve membership function. A numerical real life example of supply production planning problem is then presented. The computational results show the usefulness of the modified s-curve membership function with fuzzy linear programming technique in optimising individual objective functions, compared to non-fuzzy linear programming approach. Futhermore, the optimal solution helps to conclude that by incorporating fuzziness in a linear programming model through the objective function and constraints, a better level of satisfactory solution will be provided in respect to vagueness, compared to non-fuzzy linear programming.

Medium Enterprises

Production planning is often challenging for small medium enterprises (SMEs) company. Most of the SMEs are having difficulty in determining the optimal level of the production output which can affect their business performance. Product mix optimization is one of the main key for production planning. Many company have used linear programming model in determining the optimal combination of various products that need to be produced in order to maximize profit. Thus, this study aims for profit maximization of a SME company in Malaysia by using linear programming model. The purposes of this study are to identify the current process in the production line and to formulate a linear programming model that would suggest a viable product mix to ensure optimum profitability for the company. ABC Sdn Bhd is selected as a case study company for product mix profit maximization study. Some conclusive observations have been drawn and recommendations have been suggested. This study will provide the company and other companies, particularly in Malaysia, an exposure of linear programming method in making decisions to determine the maximum profit for different product mix.
