The topic of this diploma thesis is "Optimal production strategy of the chosen company in the area of mechanical engineering" - namely the EUTECH join stock company, or more precisely its toolshop division, which deals with the manufacture of injection moulds, parts and production of special devices for aircraft industry. The aim of the paper is to evaluate, according to the defined factors, what is for the EUTECH join stock company more favourable - invest in purchase of the 5-Axis CNC machining center technology and deal with this process inside of the company or ensure this technology in cooperation with another companies. The thesis is divided into two main parts - theoretical and practical. In the theoretical part, the subjects of operation management theory and production are dealt with. The practical part deals with the production strategy of the EUTECH join stock company, or more precisely of its toolshop division in detail. The company is briefly introduced, the situational analysis of division toolshop is conducted and the production process of the company is examined. The final chapter deals with the use of cooperation in the toolshop division. The main and other factors affecting the choice of "product or sell" strategy are evaluated and consequently is decided which strategy is in case of the 5-Axis CNC machining center technology more favourable.

The main objective of this dissertation is an operational planning optimization with greater concentration on customers and their requirements, which are supposed to be fulfilled in time, costs and quality. The aim is an operative management analysis of production process. In terms of this analysis, deficiencies of the present condition will emerge, which should be eliminated by the solution. The analysis will be based on production system, economy of production process and product. At the deficiencies, which result from the analysis, some variants how to solve the problem will be suggested and finally, the most suitable variant will be chosen. Bending and its contemporary method of solving seems to be the most serious deficiency. Therefore, the panel bender was chosen as the most suitable solution because it is usually the most convenient compensation.

Hypothesis tests were made to verify the proportional growth of a given area over the decades to the detriment of the areas of facility layout, capacity planning, production scheduling and inventory management. Six journals were selected and from them more than 800 articles were used for classification and analysis in the grounds of review. It also discussed possible ways for future research and comparisons are made with other papers of literature review. As a result, it was found that areas of heuristics and simulation showed a greater quantity of contributions in all POM areas of this study / A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo investigar a evolu??o apresentada durante tr?s d?cadas (1980, 1990 e 2000) do uso das ferramentas de Pesquisa Operacional (PO) como aux?lio ? tomada de decis?o em Gest?o da Produ??o e Opera??es (GPO). Para tal foram realizados testes de hip?teses para verificar o crescimento proporcional de determinada ?rea da PO durante as d?cadas em detrimento das ?reas de layout, planejamento da capacidade, programa??o da produ??o e gest?o de estoques. Seis peri?dicos foram selecionados e a partir deles mais de 800 artigos foram utilizados para classifica??o e an?lise na fundamenta??o da an?lise explorat?ria da literatura. ? discutido ainda poss?veis caminhos da pesquisa para o futuro e s?o feitas compara??es com outros trabalhos de revis?o de literatura. Como resultado, verificou-se que as ?reas de heur?stica e simula??o apresentaram um maior quantitativo de contribui??es em todas as ?reas da GPO pesquisadas
