The management of complex production networks is demanding. Often, the necessary transparency is lacking to coordinate demand and production capacities in such a way that goods availability and production costs are in an optimal relationship.

Enjoy!

If we talk about optimized planning, we generally distinguish between three planning horizons: operational planning, tactical planning, and strategic planning.
Let’s have a closer look at strategic planning and what it is about.

Did you know that quantum computers actually exist to work with? And they are incredibly fast! But is that true for all algorithms?
