Abstract: In this study, intuitive aggregate production scheduling performance under various environmental conditions is related to Bowman's theory of managerial coefficients. Controlled decision environments were established in four hypothetical companies to isolate the effects of differences in information relevance and planning activities. Results illustrate the effects of environmental differences on the formation of intuitive scheduling rules.
