Abstract:
 

We consider strategic planning of recurrent capital projects and their material supplies over an extended period of time. Rather than the traditional project-based approach (managing each project separately) or the recent supply-based approach (leveraging the need of multiple projects on a continuing basis), we develop an integrated approach – PDSC – to integrate supply chain lead time/safety stock planning with project management.
