Master Requirement Planning and Master Production Scheduling Software: Hard Facts Part One: Planning and Scheduling Concepts in Manufacturing (3 Pages)
by Ashfaque Ahmed
Oct 11, 2004
Abstract : Most of the manufacturing software vendors have planning and scheduling software which assume either infinite production capacity for calculating quantities of raw material and work in progress (WIP) requirements or infinite quantities of raw and WIP materials for calculating production capacity. There are many problems with this approach. This paper discusses the pitfalls of this approach and how to avoid these by making sure that the software you buy indeed takes into account finite quantities of required materials as well as finite capacities of work centers in your manufacturing facility.
