  • What are forward and backward scheduling used for?


    To manage jobs requiring different processes in manufacturing.

    scheduling forward backward
  • What is forward scheduling?


    Jobs start as soon as machines, operators, and consumables are available. Suitable for made-to-order jobs. Can result in early completion of parts. Protects the customer but may not be cost efficient.

    scheduling forward
  • What is backward scheduling?


    Jobs are planned in reverse order from their due date. Identifies when machines, operators, and consumables are needed. Avoids unnecessary early costs of consumables.

    scheduling backward
  • What is required for full factory planning?


    A combination of forward and backward scheduling approaches, often represented using a Gantt chart.
