Production is one of the most important activities which guarantee the continued existence of man; however, it comes with its challenges which make it very difficult to meet up the consumer’s demand. In this regard, the system is required by production and manufacturing companies, human resources, and materials to be enhanced by scheduling and planning of production. In addressing this problem of scheduling over a mid-term possibility, material flow and production objectives should be forecast by solving the problems of planning. Only when the production planning problems have been solved then scheduling problems could be addressed. In this work, we relate scheduling with capacity planning in relation to the production of goods and services. Also reviewed the common problems associated with the industry and how they are overcome.

This paper studies the offshoring of services and whether this phenomenon is linked to the international fragmentation of activities or to a shift in outsourcing to foreign rather than domestic suppliers. Analysis is performed using the National Accounting input-output tables of Spain’s National Institute for Statistics for the 2000-2007 period. The major findings reveal growth in the offshoring of intermediate services to foreign countries by service providers and manufacturing companies, with greater prevalence among the former. In manufacturing sectors, the analysis indicates that domestic suppliers are being replaced by their foreign counterparts. However, in service sectors these processes correspond mainly to the international fragmentation of activities.
