The chapter discusses aggregate planning, which determines production, inventory, and capacity levels over a 3-18 month horizon to maximize profit. It examines tradeoffs between capacity, inventory, backlogs and different strategies like chase, flexibility, and level. The optimal plan usually combines strategies, considering demand forecasts and constraints like production costs, inventory holding costs, and capacity limits. Good aggregate planning requires collaboration across the supply chain.
