Planning And Schedling Of Production Transferring Projects Of International Company

With the increasing growth of the economic globalization and the rapiddevelopment of the Chinese market, more and more international companiesincrease investments in and transfer production and technology to China.Based on the original production, these transfers are usually managed asprojects with contents in various domains of production. Internationalcooperation is necessary with distance problem, time lag, and culturaldifferences as its by-products. These factors impose higher requirements onproject management. To ensure the successful implementation of the project,it is critical to make a reasonable project scheduling based on thecharacteristics and existing problems in production transfer projects of theinternational companies. This thesis studies on project planning andscheduling optimization for its solution.In accordance with the characteristics of production transfer project ininternational companies, the thesis designs modular method combined withwork breakdown structure method for project planning, and summarizesconcrete steps of project planning. Firstly, according to the life cycle ofproduct, the whole production process is divided into several modules by themodular method, which defines the framework of project. Then, based onthe division of the deliverable results, the writer uses work breakdownstructure method in order to divide the work of each module into small partsthat are easy-manage-oriented, and develops a detailed list of projectactivities. The resource factors, time factors and logical relationship factorsare analyzed and assessed. Lastly, a node-network figure is created tovisualize the relationship of project activities.By studying the commonly used methods of project scheduling andanalyzing the requirements during the project implementation, this thesischooses a reasonable method of project scheduling and makes effective improvements on it. This thesis studies the resource-constrained schedulingproblem with uncertain processing time in purpose of minimizing the projecttime. Fuzzy processing time is denoted by six-point fuzzy number. Thegenetic algorithm combining fuzzy theory is used to solve this problem. Inaccordance with the own characteristic of project, encoding, decoding,selection, crossover, mutation and fitness function have been designed anddiscussed in the thesis. The method of planning and scheduling optimizationproposed in this thesis features usability in the field of engineering, whichcan be applied to the project management of production transfer.
