    Detailed planning and inventory optimization model in the mattress industry
    (2015) Montagna, Jorge Marcelo; Cecchietti, Aldo; Rodriguez, María Analía; Corsano, Gabriela
    In this work, a mixed integer linear programming (MILP) model for the simultaneous production and inventory planning problems is proposed, which arise in the industrial context of polyurethane foam manufactory. The production process considers the foam blooming stage as well as the curing step where the blocks are dried. Several tradeoffs are involved in the overall model given that detailed inventory management decisions are also taken into account in the formulation. Several study cases provided by a local company are tested to show the model performance.
