Excerpt from A Study of Production Smoothing in a Job Shop Environment
We examined the production planning function in one department within the firm. This department is typical of other departments, and manufactures approximately fifty products, most of which perform a similar general function. These fifty products are grouped into twelve families based on similarities in design and on the sharing of production equipment and labor. Since each item in a family shares the same production resources, aggregate production planning takes place at the family level.
