• TITLE: Maintenance Task Scheduling, Reaching a Twofold Objective

  ABSTRACT: In this paper, the problem of maintenance task scheduling is tackled with a twofold objective: meeting the performance criteria of a company and taking into account some operators’ requirements. The production manager makes sure that makespan is optimised while developing operators’ flexibility. The use of skill matrixes enables him to make pairs and to develop training in order to make trainees more autonomous. Operators’ requirements are in particular related to periods of unavailability and their wishes relating to their tasks. Given the complexity of the problem, an exact solution isn’t conceivable and our research focuses on a metaheuritic method giving us a solution that is considered satisfactory. A multi-criteria analysis of the results is performed in order to reach a compromise among conflicting goals.
