Operations Management: An Integrated Approach, 5th Edition

RECAP

To address the DJJ Enterprises problem, we first developed a better understanding through a picture and a structured text formulation. Then we developed the formal algebraic formulation and created a spreadsheet model based on it. We provided the Target Cell, Changing Cells, and Constraints to Solver and set the appropriate options. After solving the problem, we generated solution reports and interpreted the results. Although the example in this chapter is simplified, this is the basic process you can use for addressing all linear programming problems.
