Zusammenfassung:System and method for automated scheduling and creation of gangs of individual jobs for production. Individual jobs and related production parameters and order information are retained electronically in a database of pendingjobs awaiting production. Based on production capacity at the production facility and the production parameters of the individual pendingjobs in the database, a plurality of gang shells having defined production parameters, but not having specific individual jobs associated therewith, are defined and used for scheduling equipment and personnel at the production facility during a work shift or other desired period of time. The specific individual jobs for a gang are selected from the database relatively shortly prior to the gang's scheduled production time.
