At work, a large consulting company, we use constraint programming (actually, mostly mixed integer prog and meta heuristics) to solve problems in logistics scheduling, route optimization, staff assignment, production planning, marketing (pricing, store assortment) finance (portfolio, capital budgeting) and others. Large companies (think any of the Global 2000) benefit from a couple % improvement on their operations that lead to many $M in savings.
