Assignment model comes under the class of linear programming model, which looks alike with transportation model with an objective function of minimizing the time or cost of manufacturing the products by allocating one job to one machine or one machine to one job or one destination to one origin or one origin to one destination only. Basically assignment model is a minimization model. . In this paper to introduce a new approach to solve Assignment problem namely alternate method for solving assignment problem. An example using Alternate methods and the existing Hungarian method has been solved and compared it.

Keywords : Assignment Problem, Hungarian Algorithm for Assignment Problem, Alternate Method for Assignment Problem, Linear Integer Programming, Optimization.
