The planning could include planning for Procurement from Suppliers, Planning for Production (Product-Mix) across Multiple Plants, Planning for Allocation of Products from Plants to Warehouse to Markets and Transportation choice of Products from Plant to Warehouse to Market.

Our solution is a Mixed Integer Linear Programming solution; an optimization modelling based decision tool
This helps the management of Large / Medium size firms to undertake Medium term Planning of Manufacturing and/or Logistics operations
It provides the user with the ability to compare the existing plan with the plan created using the tool to determine how it will increase profits or reduce costs
It also includes the capability to determine the period-wise and average utilization level of each resource/equipment/process, the bottleneck resources and their behaviour over time
This, in turn, identifies the focus for capacity expansion
The Aggregate Planning is done for different objectives functions of such as Cost Minimisation, Contribution Maximisation, Service Level Maximisation
Test allocation plans by doing different "what-if" scenarios, and accordingly viewing which can have maximum impact
The Planning process also takes into account different constraints that make the solution practical and actionable
Being Multiple Time Period, it is also possible to find the optimal inventory levels across multiple time periods such that the overall cost is minimised.
