Abstract :
We develop a linear programming model for integrated partner selection and scheduling in a web-enabled global manufacturing network environment. We assume that all stakeholders in the supply chain share information on their capacities, schedules and cost structures. Based on this information, the model addresses the issue of partner selection for minimal cost of manufacturing and delivery. The model is solved using ILOG optimization tools.
