Scheduling is more than just your bill of materials

Comic from Lokad's supply chain series. The scene is split in two. On the left, a frustrated woman at her desk is on the phone, saying, 'What do you mean it isn’t fixed yet? You have all the parts you need!' On the right, a man is in a workshop surrounded by disassembled parts, replying, 'I know, but the technician is sick.' The comic is titled 'Scheduling is more than just your bill of materials,' with the caption 'You need to optimize your entire bill of resources' at the bottom, emphasizing the importance of accounting for all resources in scheduling.
