The current state of production planning and scheduling relies on manual processes due to the impracticality of plans generated by end-to-end planning software. These software solutions often fail to accommodate the intricate constraints inherent in factory floor operations. The solvers employed within these software systems struggle with the complexity present in real-world manufacturing environments, often necessitating the imposition of simplifying assumptions. As a result, manual intervention remains a predominant practice, highlighting the need for more robust and adaptable planning solutions that can effectively address the complexities of modern industrial settings.
