Distribution Requirements Planning from indiana.eduwarmleon
油
DRP (Distribution Requirements Planning) manages the flow of materials between firms, warehouses, and distribution centers to integrate supply chain inventory information with manufacturing planning. It helps determine vehicle and warehouse capacity, loading, and dispatching to continually adjust to changes in demand. DRP is connected to both demand management in the marketplace and the MPS (Master Production Schedule) in manufacturing to provide accurate shipping information and evaluate if manufacturing priorities need adjustment. The basic DRP record tracks forecast requirements, in-transit inventory, projected available balance, and planned shipments over multiple time periods.
Production and operations management deals with the conversion of inputs into finished goods and services. It involves planning, organizing and controlling a firm's operations such as procurement, manufacturing and distribution. The key objectives are to maximize output, ensure quality and minimize costs. Recent trends include globalization, flexibility, reducing time to market and increased use of technology like CAD, CAM and supply chain management. Plant location is important and is influenced by factors like availability of raw materials, markets, labor, transportation and utilities.
