Abstract
Cyclic, stepvise, on customer orders based production is a normal practice in steel plants. This, however, causes many problems to all planning horizons. In this paper a hierarchic short term planning and control system of a special steel plant is introduced. Corporate planning hierarchy is also described in short.
