Abstract: Concurrent planning of project scheduling and
material ordering has been increasingly addressed within last decades
as an approach to improve the project execution costs. Therefore, we
have taken the problem into consideration in this paper, aiming to
maximize schedules quality robustness, in addition to minimize the
relevant costs. In this regard, a bi-objective mathematical model is
developed to formulate the problem. Moreover, it is possible to
utilize the all-unit discount for materials purchasing. The problem is
then solved by the E-constraint method, and the Pareto front is
obtained for a variety of robustness values. The applicability and
efficiency of the proposed model is tested by different numerical
instances, finally.
