MRP-based systems have been available for over twenty years, but today's packaged implementations are limited in their ability to address evolving manufacturing segments such as custom manufacturing for the processing industries. MRP explores the solutions available and discusses the approaches that are being applied to meet the needs of specific industries.
Provides a detailed discussion of the adaptation of standard systems. Thoroughly examines enhanced package approaches. Explains how a packaged program can be modified and improved to meet diverse manufacturing requirements.
