The purpose of this thesis is to map, describe, analyze and evaluate the current production planning process in order to identify potential improvements.

The empirical data used for this thesis was mainly collected through interviews and participation in meetings.
Conclusions
This thesis has shown that there are many areas that can be improved in the current production planning process at HARDI International A/S. The introduction of the new ERP-system enables HARDI International A/S to reduce the number of internal processes in the main production planning process and consequently increase the overall performance. Besides the ERP-system a number of improvements have been suggested. (Less)
