Pharmaceutical products are indispensable for human life. Typically, a manufacturer should well plan the production in order to meet the customer demand. However, it is due to the fact that pharmaceutical industry typically produces mixed products in different dosage forms; therefore, a good plan is hardly obtained. Therefore, this research presents the business process redesign of the Master Production Schedule MPS for the tablet manufacturing process. The objective of this study is to plan synchronized master production schedule of tableting, coating and packing line utilizing the developed heuristic algorithm. As a result, practical MPS can be created from starting to finish date scheduling in each process of tablet production. This methodology is then applied to sample data sets, attempting to develop MPS with an aim for on-time delivery.
