Recently, the Contiguous-Cells Transportation Model (CCTM) was proposed to address this problem. However, the CCTM is limited to non-pre-emptive P/M scheduling decision situations where only one objective is of concern. The multiple objective non-pre-emptive P/M scheduling are encountered more frequently in the real world than the single objective case. This study proposed the Multi-Objective Contiguous-Cells Transportation Model (MOCCTM) and the solution procedure for handling multi-objective cases of non-pre-emptive production/maintenance scheduling. The variables and parameters of the CCTM were adopted with modifications to cater for the multi-objective requirements. A composite multiple-objective function was formulated by employing multi-objective optimisation techniques of assigning weights to objectives and normalisation of objectives. An algorithm similar to the conventional least cost method was developed for the solution of the MOCCTM. A bi-objective non-pre-emptive maintenance scheduling problem of 5 production machines across an operation and maintenance planning horizon of 10 periods was used to demonstrate the application of the MOCCTM. The MOCCTM is a good approach to solving multi-objective P/M scheduling problems in a non-pre-emptive environment.
