We study the stochastic optimal control for an assemble-to-order system with multiple products and components that arrive at the system in random batches and according to renewal reward processes. Our purpose is to maximize expected infinite-horizon discounted profit by selecting product prices, component production rates, and a dynamic sequencing rule for assembly. We refine the solution of some static planning problem and a discrete review policy to batch arrival environment and develop an asymptotically optimal policy for the system operating under heavy traffic, which indicates that the system can be approximated by a diffusion process and exhibits a state space collapse property.
