Abstract


The scheduling process plays a crucial role in project management. The goal is to define the timeline of tasks and operations in order to optimize resource utilization and achieve set objectives within the given timeframe. There are numerous project scheduling strategies that can be applied in business to better organize the sequence of operations and orders.


In this article, we sought to identify the most commonly used customer order priority strategies in companies across several sectors in Tetouan, Tangier, and Casablanca through telephone interviews. The results showed that the most widely adopted strategies are FIFO and EDD, the latter particularly in the textile and upholstery sectors.
