Production Planning and Control aims to achieve a balance between minimizing costs, maximizing customer satisfaction, and ensuring efficient resource utilization.

Quality control is typically not considered a function of Production Planning and Control, as it is more closely associated with quality management.

Production scheduling involves determining when and how much to produce to meet customer demand.

Continuous scheduling is not a type of production scheduling, as it is typically used in process industries where production is continuous.

Inventory management involves determining the optimal level of inventory to hold to meet customer demand while minimizing costs.

Economic order quantity (EOQ) is not a type of inventory management system, but rather a formula used to determine the optimal quantity to order to minimize inventory costs.

Capacity planning involves determining the production capacity required to meet customer demand.

Quality control is not typically considered a factor in capacity planning, as it is more closely associated with quality management.

Production control involves coordinating and controlling the flow of materials, information, and resources throughout the production process.

Economic order quantity (EOQ) is not a technique used in production control, but rather a formula used to determine the optimal quantity to order to minimize inventory costs.

Productivity improvement involves improving the efficiency and effectiveness of production processes.

Economic order quantity (EOQ) is not a technique used in productivity improvement, but rather a formula used to determine the optimal quantity to order to minimize inventory costs.

Production management involves integrating and coordinating all aspects of production planning and control.

Quality control is typically not considered a function of production management, as it is more closely associated with quality management.

Continuous improvement, Kaizen, and Total quality management (TQM) are all processes aimed at continuously improving production processes and systems.
