1. 1 Material Requirement Planning (MRP) Chapter 16 Feb 9, 2006

2. 2 Material Requirement Planning (MRP)  ______________________________________ Key Outputs of MRP  Calculate demand for component items  Determine requirements for subassemblies, components, and raw material  Determine when they are needed  Generate work orders and purchase order  Consider lead time

3. 3 When to use MRP  ___________________________________ Dependent / Independent Demand?

6. 6 Major Inputs to MRP Process: 1. Bill of Material  Product structure file  Determines which component items need to be scheduled Product Structure Record Clipboard Level 0 Level 1 Level 2 Sprin g (1) Bottom Clip (1) Top Clip (1) Piv ot (1) Rivet s (2) Clip Assembly (1) Pressboa rd (1)

7. 7 Major Inputs to MRP Process: 2. Master Production Schedule (MPS)  Drives MRP process with a schedule of finished products  Quantities represent production not demand  Quantities may consist of a combination of customer orders & demand forecasts  Quantities represent what needs to be produced, not what can be produced  Example PERIOD MPS ITEM12345 Clipboard8595120100100 Lapdesk0500500 Lapboard75120472017 Pencil Case125125125125125

8. 8 Major Inputs to MRP Process: 3.

9. 9 MRP Processes – 4 Basic Steps 1. Exploding the bill of material  ___________________________________ 2. Netting out inventory  ___________________________________ 3. Lot sizing rule – How many units  ___________________________________ 4. Time-phasing requirements  ___________________________________

10. 10 Lot Sizing Rule Comparison  The FOQ rule ___________ _______________________  The POQ rule ___________ _______________________ _______________________  The L4L rule ___________ _______________________ _______________________

11. 11 MRP Matrix Gross Requirement  Derived from planned order releases of the parent  Actual / estimated demand, in case of final product Schedule Receipts  Items on order  Scheduled to arrive in the future time period Projected on hand  Current inventory, or anticipated inventory at the end of period Projected on-hand Inventory at end of period t Projected on-hand Inventory at end of period t Inventory on- hand at end of period t - 1 =+ Scheduled / planned receipts in period t - Gross requirements in period t

12. 12 MRP Matrix Net requirements  Actual quantity to produce based on projected on hand and on-order quantity Planned Order Receipts  Quantity, when orders need to be received  Consider lot sizing rule: Planned Order Release  When order need to be placed to receive on time  Consider lead time

17. 17 Evolution of MRP  MRP (material requirements planning) was the precursor to ERP  Primarily a production planning and control system  MRP evolved to MRP II (manufacturing resource planning)  ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) and ERP II continue to extend the links through all business processes

18. 18 Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) An Overview  Organizes and manages a company’s business processes by sharing information across functional areas  Connects with supply-chain and customer management applications  ERP in the nutshell*  Client server software  Integrates majority of business processes  Processes majority of transactions  Enterprise wide database  Real time data access * adapted from e-courseware, MIT Sloan

21. 21 ERP Implementation Process  First step is to analyze business processes  Which processes have the biggest impact on customer relations?  Which process would benefit the most from integration?  Which processes should be standardized?  Use of Internet portals can aid implementation
