Material Requirement
Planning (MRP1)
What is MRP?
 Computerized Inventory Control
 Production Planning System
 Management Information System
 Manufacturing Control System
What is MRP? (cont)
 This is the most comprehensive approach to
manufacturing inventory and other dependents
which demand an efficient inventory management
system.
What is MRP do ?
 The MRP system determines item-by-item, what is to
be processed and when, as well as what is to be
manufactured when.
 This is based on order priorities and available
capacities.
When to use MRP
 Job Shop Production
 Complex Products
 Assemble-to-Order Environments
 Discrete and Dependent Demand Items
What can MRP do?
 Reduce Inventory Levels
 Reduce Component Shortages
 Improve Shipping Performance
 Improve Customer Service
 Improve Productivity
 Simplified and Accurate Scheduling
 Reduce Purchasing Cost
 Improve Production Schedules
 Reduce Manufacturing Cost
 Reduce Lead Times
 Less Scrap and Rework
 Higher Production Quality
What can MRP do?(contd)
 Improve Communication
 Improve Plant Efficiency
 Reduce Freight Cost
 Reduction in Excess Inventory
 Reduce Overtime
 Improve Supply Schedules
 Improve Calculation of Material Requirements
 Improve Competitive Position
Three Basic Steps of MRP
 Identifying Requirements
 Running MRP – Creating the Suggestions
 Firming the Suggestions
Step 1: Identifying the Requirements
 Quantity on Hand
 Quantity on Open Purchase Order
 Quantity in/or Planned for Manufacturing
 Quantity Committed to Existing Orders
 Quantity Forecasted
Step 1: Important Information
MRP is…..
 Company Sensitive
 Location Sensitive
 Date Sensitive
Step 2: Running MRP – Creating the
Suggestions
 Critical Items
 Expedite Items
 Delay Items
Step 3: Firming the Suggestions
 Manufacturing Orders
 Purchasing Orders
 Various Reports

 Bill of Materials:
 It is a materials list that provides information
useful to reconstruct the manufacturing
process. It is the master product definition
that contains “as designed” information.

Master Production Schedule
 Schedule of Finished Products
 Represents Production, not Demand
 Combination of Customer Orders and Demand
Forecasts
 What Needs to be Produced

 On-Hand Quantities
 On-Order Quantities
 Lot Sizes
 Safety Stock
 Lead Time
 Past-Usage Figures

Terms Defined
 Item – name or number for the item being scheduled
 Low-Level Code – the lowest level of the item on the product
structure file
 Lot Size – order multiples of quantity
 Lead Time – the time from when an order is placed to when it is
received
 PD – Past Due Time Bucket, orders behind schedule
Terms Defined
 Gross Requirements – demand for an item by time period
 Scheduled Receipts – material already ordered
 Projected on Hand – expected ending inventory
 Net Requirements – number of items to be provided and when
 Planned Order Receipts – net requirements adjusted for lot size
 Planned Order Releases – planned order receipts offset for lead
times
