A good chunk of the day-to-day work of "operations research" consulting shops is scheduling.

There is also dedicated software like Timefold, formerly RedHat OptaPlanner [0].

For Job Shop Scheduling like this, Timefold has two implementations:

- Basic: an open source Food Packaging quickstart on solver.timefold.ai

- Advanced: a Job Scheduling REST API on app.timefold.ai
