Project Title: Labor Planning Model for Uncertain DemandPrincipal Investigator: Ricki G. Ingalls, Ph.D. This project will create a labor planning model for Crane NWSC that takes into account volatile demand profiles. Early results show that this model can be adapted to the Crane process. 1) Leverage the learning from the CELDi project, Manufacturing and Distribution Strategies for Volatile and Cyclical Customer Demand, which was done for Smith Tool and was completed in 2003. 2) Develop the mathematical model for this optimization. 3) Implement the mathematical model in commercial optimization software. The implementation will be in Xpress, which is a product of Dash Optimization. This project extends earlier CELDi work and shows that the volitile labor planning model has broad application.
