In general if you needed to build a solution like this from scratch today, surely you would feed the data into an off-the-shelf linear programming or constraint based programming tool/library and ask it to actually do the optimization.

Narayan presented case study was discussed in the previous article in this series and this article analyses how a layered architecture to tackling this problem would have surfaced the problems much earlier and many of the surprises that caused them to swing wildly between jubilation and depression would have been avoided.
