A stability concept for the open shop schedule is proposed. The underlying aim is to protect an organisation against serious problems caused by accumulation of delays in various processes realised in the organisation at the same time. The stability criterion is coupled with that of schedule makespan minimisation. Buffers are used as a tool of ensuring schedule stability. A fuzzy model determining the optimal schedule with respect to both criteria is formulated based on expert opinions as to the desired buffer size and the desired planned makespan. The model is expressed as a mixed integer linear programming model. The approach is illustrated by means of an example.
