SOUZA, Fernando Bernardi de; RENTES, Antonio Freitas  e  AGOSTINHO, Oswaldo Luiz. The relationship between production planning and control systems and methods of capacity allocation. Gest. Prod. [online]. 2002, vol.9, n.2, pp. 215-234. ISSN 0104-530X.  http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0104-530X2002000200008.

There is a lack of researches on the relationship between methods of capacity allocation of manufacturing resources and production planning and control systems. Studies about capacity allocation are based on simplified push production systems not considering more current production management systems. By other side, studies about efficiency of production management systems don't consider the effect of different criteria of capacity allocation of manufacturing resources at the results. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how the different policies of capacity allocation and different production planning and control systems interrelate between each other.
