This paper discusses a simulation study in a food processing company in Indonesia. The company produces meatballs and supports the operation of 16 meatballs outlet restaurants. The company's main challenge is fulfilling the customer's demand (restaurant demands) which is especially difficult during weekends & holidays. Implementation of MPS (master production schedule) is one way of handling this challenge. However the company needs to be assured about MPS before implementing it. This paper provides simulation for MPS implementation. With simulation, the effect of MPS on the meatballs production line can be observed. With it also can develop the overtime production schedule for meatballs production. The outcome of this paper shows how overtime production schedule (OPS) can minimize the unfulfilled customer demand without increasing production capacity.
