Abstract

Production control can be regarded as a logistic planning and control (LPC) function within a production environment. This chapter discusses logistics in the general sense. The basic function of logistics is to make sure that the transformation process can perform its function effectively and efficiently by providing that process with the proper information, materials, and resource. The chapter focuses on basic decision elements in planning and control for logistics. LPC is about making decisions on the availability and the supply of materials, information, and capacity resources at which place and in what quantity to get the transformation process going. The chapter discusses specific characteristics of LPC in production. LPC can be considered as an aspect system of the control part of the production system. It focuses on the planning and control of the timeliness of the process. The chapter defines crucial concepts used in production control and discusses some general characteristics of a production situation.
