ABSTRACT

Planning & control in organizational logistics aims to deliver products and orders reliably by the specified due date. Time management and scheduling are first and foremost a matter of medium-term and short-term planning (during order release), although there are some long-term elements. Figure 12.0.0.1 shows the reference model for business processes and the tasks of planning and control introduced in Figure 4.1.4.2, highlighting the tasks and processes in time management and scheduling on a darker background.
