Abstract

The present research attempts to introduce an operational research model to minimise the uncertainty of time and cost in the main domains of industrial engineering (IE) by using quality engineering techniques (QET). The research approach is based on three processes. The first process reviews QET among the most important IEF. The second process relates to the influential factors. The third process concentrates on the operational research model by applying the fuzzy multi-objective linear programming. A numerical application for the third process is explained. The assessment results are endorsed by the management representatives' views in the organisation. The first innovative aspect of the research is the combination of QET and IE in the operational research model to save time and cost within the organisation. The second novelty of the current study is the use of quantum mechanics perspectives for the time concept in the long-term.
