摘要： A blending plan for concentrated consumable products, such as liquid food and beverage products, may be optimized by utilizing a computer device executing a software algorithm. The computing device receives one or more inputs associated with the blending of various components employed in producing quantities of a concentrated consumable product over a predetermined time interval. The computing device may be further utilized to apply constraints to each of the one or more inputs. The constraints may be utilized to enforce quality, raw material and component bounds, supply and demand requirements, product and component supply balance, capacity limitations and business rules in order to minimize costs and complexity associated with the production of a concentrated consumable product while maximizing quality, thereby optimizing the blending plan.
