A grey production planning model on a ready-mixed concrete plant

摘要

The parameters of decision models are not clearly known and they are not exact for most real-life problems. Therefore, this article presents a model of linear programming with grey interval numbers for right-hand-side parameters under an uncertainty case. The purpose of this article is to compare the results of a fuzzy linear programming model and those of four proposed grey linear programming models and to find effective solutions for alternative production planning. The results produced a more effective plan to use as an industrial solution according to a fuzzy linear programming model. The objective function value is about 3% more effective than with the fuzzy linear programming method, and the customer satisfaction of total demand is about 25% more effective for the number of served customers.
