| Abstract | Multipurpose batch process industries often operate in markets for low volume. high value added products with a variable and dynamic demand. Therefore, production should offer extensive flexibility. Production occurs on general purpose equipment, which is formed into configurations to produce a product or product family. In this paper it is discussed that businesses in the mUltipurpose batch process industry need a practical method for medium and short term capacity planning in order to be able to realise both sufficient utilisation of the available capacity and a high delivery performance. It is discussed that methods available in the literature are not very well suited for this. Therefore a research agenda on planning in multipurpose batch process industries is proposed. |
