In the 1950s, a planning method was conceived called “Material Requirements Planning (or MRP).” MRP changed the world of manufacturing forever. But times have changed—customer tolerance times are much shorter, product variety and complexity has increased, and supply chains have spread around the world. MRP is dramatically failing in this “New Normal.”  Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning (DDMRP) is a practical, proven, and emerging method for supply chain planning and execution that effectively brings the 1950s concept into the modern era. The foundation of DDMRP is based upon the connection between the creation, protection, and acceleration of the flow of relevant materials and information to drive returns on asset performance.
Using an innovative multi-echelon “Position, Protect, and Pull” methodology, DDMRP helps plan and manage inventories and materials in today’s more complex supply scenarios, with attention being paid to ownership, the market, engineering, sales, and the supply base. This method enables a company to decouple forecast error from supply order generation and build in line to actual market requirements, and promotes better and quicker decisions and actions at the planning and execution level. DDMRP is already in use by MAJOR Global 1000 companies. Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning is THE definitive work on DDMRP, and will be required as courseware for all those taking the Certified Demand Driven Planner (CDDP) Program.
FeaturesTHE authoritative work on the emerging DDMRP methodology.Provides a clear, concise, and compelling explanation of the breakdown of conventional planning systems.Includes immersive and extensive examples that bring DDMRP to life across multiple industries, including vertically integrated supply chains, fast-moving consumer goods (FMCG), heavy fabrication and assembly, and retail and wholesale distribution.Features over 300 graphical figures.Ptak and Smith are world renowned leaders in the fields of MRP, Theory of Contraints (TOC), Quality Improvement, and Supply Chain Management.

Quotes

    orders. Its use of qualified sales orders means that all components of the supply generation equation (on-order, on-hand, and qualified sales orders) are known and contain relatively little variability. This combined with the decoupling point positioning and buffers means that nervousness, supply continuity variability, and the bull-whip effect are mitigated. The net flow equation and net flow position allow for quick, intuitive, and informative views across groups of items, giving a real sense of relative priority and how to best handle that relative priority.

    ote that there are three orders all due on the same day (POs 821158, 831145, and 831162).
