Abstract
A system and method of supply chain planning of process industry production include a processor and memory and are configured to model a supply chain planning problem for two or more products of a process industry, wherein a coproduct is produced for at least one of the products, group the two or more products into groups, receive a weight and a yield for each raw material that produces each of the products in at least one of the groups, cluster each of the raw materials using weight-yield clustering, generate BOM grouping, and assign one BOM grouping to each of the raw materials of a single cluster.
