Abstract
In this chapter, we construct three mathematical models for aggregate planning. We start with a basic model that includes workforce requirements, inventory levels, and stock-out. Then, we spread the model such that the fixed cost of manufacturing products in a period is included. We also change the model to include promotion programs. Hence, a manufacturer may invest in these programs which result in a demand increase. Moreover, backlogs are considerable instead of lost sales (stock-out). Next, we state the importance of sustainability in supply chain management and aggregate planning, and propose some indicators which represent sustainability considerations in an aggregate plan. Thus, the third model is a sustainable aggregate plan that includes three objective functions.
