In this chapter, the issue of an integrated analysis of schedule execution policies and the achievement of the planned economic performance in a real uncertain and perturbed execution environment is considered. The study has been performed with the objective to consider at the integrated level the performance of the master planning (i.e., service level and net profit) and schedule execution control. As the methodical basis of such an integrated consideration, control theory has been selected. The justification of this choice is based on the feedback properties of control theoretic methods. Two tools attainable sets and positional optimization have been applied. An advantage of using attainable sets and positional optimization is that due to the continuous time representation, the impacts of perturbations both on schedule execution and economic performance can be derived at each point of time. With the presented results, schedule model, economic performance of the master planning level, and adaptation model are considered integrated. The revealed managerial insights from such integration as well as future research needs are discussed.
