heuristic-based planning (SCM-APO-SNP)

Supply Network Planning (SNP) (SCM-APO-SNP)

Planning that uses the SNP heuristic. The SNP heuristic plans demand over the entire supply chain network (cross-location planning) and creates a medium-term production and distribution plan. It does not take into account any constraints or costs, which means that the plan created will not necessarily be feasible. In a second step after the heuristic run, the planner can then adjust the plan using capacity leveling in interactive SNP planning in order to create a plan that is feasible.
