The COVID-19 pandemic has put fashion manufacturers’ needs for optimization in the spotlight. This study argues that mass customization is becoming increasingly instrumental for offering consumers individualized solutions and that suppliers of fashion have to look for more sophisticated solutions in order to face the increasing demand for more sustainable products. With the deduction of a mathematical model derived from production sequencing it became evident that sustainability can be associated with a level production schedule and that cost-based production optimization is useful in achieving holistic sustainability in the fashion industry. The flexibility in the conceived mathematical model specifications allows for a generalizable approach, not limited to a single branch of the fashion industry. This paper additionally delivers a cost-based optimization approach which fashion companies, operating in a mass customization production layout, can easily implement without extensive know-how. The proposed two-stage algorithm is based on the concept of level scheduling. In a first stage, the algorithm determines a feasible production sequence in a time-efficient way while, in the second stage, it further advances the efficiency of the solution. Thus, it offers a framework to optimize a production in a mass customization environment and can contribute to a company taking major steps towards a holistic sustainable orientation as available resources are used more (cost) efficiently.

This paper addresses the problem of production scheduling under a practical approach, which seeks to find out what would be the product mix to ensure the company to obtain the most useful, also requires that these combinations of products obtained from quickly and efficiently contributing thus to achieve lower costs associated with production. A specific mathematical model based on integer linear programming applied specifically to the product mix is presented, as well as the results obtained from the practical problem from the use of the model in integer linear programming, the use of the software and considering the own conditions of the problem addressed here.

Penjadwalan merupakan aspek yang sangat penting karena didalamnya terdapat elemen perencanaan dan pengendalian produksi bagi suatu perusahaan yang dapat mengirim barang sesuai dengan waktu yang telah ditentukan, untuk memperoleh waktu total penyelesaian yang minimum. Masalah utama yang dihadapi oleh PT. ML adalah keterlambatan penyelesaian order yang mempengaruhi delivery time ke tangan costumer karena pelaksanaan penjadwalan produksi dilantai pabrik belum menghasilkan makespan yang sesuai dengan order yang ada. Oleh kaena itu dituntut untuk mencari solusi pemecahan masalah optimal dalam penentuan jadwal produksi untuk meminimisasi total waktu penyelessaian (makespan) semua order. Dalam penelitian ini, penjadwalan menggunakan metode Simulated Annealing (SA) diharapkan dapat menghasilkan waktu total penyelesaian lebih cepat dari penjadwalan yang ada pada perusahaan.   Scheduling is a very important aspect because in it there are elements of planning and production control for a company that can send goods in accordance with a predetermined time, to obtain a minimum total time of completion. The main problem faced by PT. ML is the delay in completing orders that affect delivery time to customer because the implementation of production scheduling on the factory floor has not produced the makespan that matches the existing order. Therefore, it is required to find optimal problem solving solutions in determining the production schedule to minimize the total time of elimination (makespan) of all orders. In this study, scheduling using the Simulated Annealing (SA) method is expected to produce a total time of completion faster than the existing scheduling in the company.

AbstractThe internal crowdsourcing-based ideation within a company can be defined as an involvement of its staff, specialists, managers, and other employees, to propose solution ideas for a pre-defined problem. This paper addresses a question, how many participants of the company-internal ideation process are required to nearly reach the ideation limit for the problems with a finite number of workable solutions. To answer the research question, the author proposes a set of metrics and a non-linear ideation performance function with a positive decreasing slope and ideation limit for the closed-ended problems. Three series of experiments helped to explore relationships between the metric attributes and resulted in a mathematical model which allows companies to predict the productivity metrics of their crowdsourcing ideation activities such as quantity of different ideas and ideation limit as a function of the number of contributors, their average personal creativity and ideation efficiency of a contributors’ group.

Based on the analyzing of the characteristics of a Body-In-White pressing production process a pressing workshop production management system has been given in order to make the ERP production scheduling more executable. The detailed function model of it such as task assignment, quality control, mold maintenance and production scheduling has been thoroughly discussed. In order to make the production line capability balance the task dispatching algorithm has been given and the dynamic dispatching and controlling process has been explained. This system can be integrated with the upper ERP/CAPP/PDM system which can improve the information level of a company.

There has been an increasing demand for the design of an optimum topological layout in several engineering fields for a simple part, along with a system that considers the relative behaviors between adjacent parts. This paper presents a method of designing an optimum topological layout to achieve a linear dynamic impact and frictionless contact conditions in which relative behaviors can be observed between adjacent deformable parts. The solid isotropic method with penalization (SIMP) method is used with an appropriate filtering scheme to obtain an optimum topological layout. The condensed mortar method is used to handle the non-matching interface, which inevitably occurs in the impact and contact regions, since it can easily apply the existing well-known topology optimization approach even in the presence of a non-matching interface. The validity of the proposed method is verified through a numerical example. In the future, the proposed optimization approach will be applied to more general and highly nonlinear non-matching interface problems, such as friction contact and multi-physics problems.

Production scheduling is the most important part in carrying out the production process that will be carried out on a production floor. Scheduling activities are carried out before the production process begins to ensure the smooth running of the production process. If the production scheduling is not done properly, there will be obstacles in the production process and will cause losses to the company. This study aims to determine the production machine scheduling in a company engaged in the manufacture of spare parts for automotive products. This company implements a job shop production process and uses the First In First Out method in completing its work. Due to the large number of products that have to be produced, there are often two or more products that must be worked on at the same time and machine. This condition causes some products to have to wait for the associated machine to finish operating and causes long product turnaround times. This problem is solved by making a production machine scheduling using the Non-Delay method. By applying this method, the makespan of completion time can be minimized.

The fashion industry that is gamis in Indonesia is growing rapidly because the majority of the population is Moslem. Elzatta is a company that does business on Moslem clothing, one of its products is the gamis. The company is experiencing problems with stockpiling in warehouses, because of models that were not sold, as well as outdated models. With the accumulation of products in warehouses in 2017 and 2018, many products will be damaged. For this reason, the company runs a buy one get one business strategy and sells products at low prices. As a result, the company suffered a substantial loss. For this reason, it is necessary to evaluate the inventory management that has been carried out using the EOQ model. For 2019, it is necessary to plan the number of products to be sold and apply the EOQ model. The results of evaluations in 2017 and 2018, by using EOQ the company could save 64.78% for 2017 and 63.40% for 2018. Whereas for 2019, after forecasting the number of sales using the seasonal model, sales projections are similar to the number of sales in the previous years, so that the number of products needed for a single order is 1364 pcs.
