This new edition reveals the next evolutionary step for materials and supply chain synchronization in the modern manufacturing landscape. This update describes: A solution to a chronic MRP-related problem that plagues many manufacturers: shortages of materials, components that block the smooth flow of work through the plant A competitive edge through strategic lead time reductions Significant reductions in total inventory investment Significant increases in service levels This new edition helps companies tackle three pervasive problems: unacceptable inventory performance; unacceptable service level performance; and high related expenses and waste. New to This Edition: New section on manufacturing as the heart of the supply chain management, and specific challenges in the 21st century Covers supply chain management (SCM) and distribution requirements planning (DRP) Discusses the impact of Lean and the Toyota Production System Update of integration software Reviews the emergence of demand-driven strategies and the MRP “conflict” Introduces the new concept of ASR (Actively Synchronized Replenishment) and explains how to incorporate it into business processes Explains positioning and how Six Sigma can help achieve results In-depth discussion of buffers – how to size, maintain, and adjust them New chapter on using MRP tools across the supply chain to enable pull-based approaches New case studies which illustrating the techniques described in the book Comprehensive coverage: The Whole and Its Parts; Manufacturing as a Process; Inventory Management; Prerequisites of MRP 3.0; Traditional Methodology; MRP Logic; Keeping MRP Up to Date; Lot Sizing and Safety Stock; Data Requirements and Management; MRP 3.0; Traditional MRP in Today’s Environment; MRP 3.0 Component 1—Strategic Inventory Positioning; Component 2—Buffer Level Profiling; Component 3—Dynamic Buffer Maintenance; Component 4—Pull-Based Demand Generation; Component 5—Highly Visible and Collaborative Execution; Dynamic Buffer Level Profiling; ASR Demand Generation; Applications; Developing Valid Inputs; Making Outputs Useful; Demand Driven Philosophies and MRP; Engineer to Order Environments; Lessons of the Past; Present State; The Future of MRP 3.0\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarol Ptak is currently a partner with the Demand Driven Institute and was most recently at Pacific Lutheran University as Visiting Professor and Distinguished Executive in Residence. Previously, she was vice president and global industry executive for manufacturing and distribution industries at PeopleSoft where she developed the concept of demand driven manufacturing (DDM). Ms. Ptak spent four years at IBM Corporation culminating in the position of global SMB segment executive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA leading authority in the use of ERP and Supply Chain tools to drive improved bottom line performance, Ms. Ptak's expertise is well grounded in four decades of practical experience as a successful practitioner, consultant and educator in manufacturing operations. Her pragmatic approach to complex issues and dynamic presentation style has her in high demand worldwide on the subject of how to leverage these tools and achieve sustainable success.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShe holds an MBA from Rochester Institute of Technology and completed the EMPO program at Stanford University. Ms. Ptak is a frequent educator at the university level and presents at many key technical conferences around the world including South Africa, France, Israel, Australia, Ireland, the Netherlands and eleven APICS International conferences. She is the author of numerous articles and the books DDMRP (Industrial Press, 2016) and Orlicky’s Material Requirements Planning 3\/E (McGraw-Hill, 2011) with Chad Smith, in addition to MR and Beyond and ERP, Tools, Techniques and Applications for Integrating the Supply Chain, Theory H.O.W. with Harold Cavallaro, Necessary but not Sufficient with Dr. Eli Goldratt and Eli Schragenheim. Together with Dean Gilliam she updated Quantum Leap, originally written by John Constanza.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMs. Ptak is certified through APICS at the fellow level (CFPIM) and was certified in Integrated Resource Management (CIRM) with the first group internationally. Ms. Ptak was the President and CEO of APICS, The Educational Society for Resource Management for the year 2000. Prior to her election as APICS President, she served on the Society in a variety of positions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarol Ptak currently makes her home on a working cattle ranch in the Pinal Mountains near Globe, AZ with her husband, Jim, three horses and the largest fold of purebred registered Scottish Highland cattle in Arizona.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChad Smith is the coauthor (with Carol Ptak) of the third edition of Orlicky’s Material Requirements Planning (McGraw-Hill, 2011) and Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning (Industrial Press, 2016) and Precisely Wrong – Why Conventional Planning Fails and How to Fix It (Industrial Press 2017). He is also the coauthor (with Debra Smith) of Demand Driven Performance: Using Smart Metrics (McGraw-Hill, 2014). He is a cofounder of and partner in the Demand Driven Institute, an organization dedicated to proliferating demand driven methods throughout the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1997 Mr. Smith co-founded Constraints Management Group (CMG), a services and technology company specializing in demand driven manufacturing, materials, and project management systems for midrange and large manufacturers.
