Q

Capacity requirements planning (CRP) (he said he might ask a question on this) (He said it’s in the book)

A

(guugle) Capacity requirements planning is the process by which a company figures out how much it needs to produce, and determines if it is capable of meeting those production goals. Small businesses must conduct capacity requirements planning regularly to keep up with changes in supply and demand.

Q

Three Basic APP Strategies

A
  1. Chase Strategy
  2. Level Strategy
  3. Mixed Production Strategy
52
Q

Chase Strategy

A

Adjusts capacity to match demand. Firm hires & lays off workers to match demand. Finished goods inventory remains constant. Works well for make-to-order firms

53
Q

Level Strategy

A

Relies on a constant output rate while varying inventory & backlog according to fluctuating demand. Firm relies on fluctuating finished goods & backlogs to meet demand. Works well for make-to-stock firms.

54
Q

Mixed Production Strategy

A

Maintains stable core workforce while using other short-term means, such as overtime, subcontracting & part time helpers to manage short-term fluctuation in demand pattern.

55
Q

Chase production

A
  • Exact quantity to chase sales- increase or decrease production level varies depending on the sales volume - your inventory is stable at the end
56
Q

Chase strategy

A

Demand patterns and the production level they are exactly the same

57
Q

Level production

A

level production is stable

58
Q

detailed disaggregation of the APP

A

listing the exact end items to be produced by a specific period.

59
Q

For the ____ ____, the MPS may just be the _______ _____ or _____ , which ensures that capacity (e.g., skilled labor or professional service) is balance with demand.

A

service industryappointment log or book

60
Q

Master production scheduel is easier for what type of industry

A

service industry

61
Q

What type of industry is the master production schedule more complicated for?

A

Manufacture industry

62
Q

System Nervousness [2]

A

•Frequent changes to the MPS may create system nervousness•Situation where a small change in the quantities required, causes a major change in the lower-level components requiredAdditional notes- time is too short to react to it - not going to work without enough time to react to the change

63
Q

Time Fence Systemx

A

•Using a time fence to separates the planning horizon into two segments is an effective way to deal with system nervousness

64
Q

Firm Segment

A

(AKA as a demand time fence), from current period to several weeks into future. Quantities can only be altered by senior management.Additional notes- you cant change production from present to 2 weeks - can be changed if you have more time though

65
Q

Tentative Segment

A

(AKA planning time fence), from end of the firmed segment to several weeks farther into the future; changes allowed during this time.additional notes - it can be changed

66
Q

Available-to-Promise (ATP) Quantities

A

•Uses to decides whether additional orders can be accepted, based on the difference between confirmed customer orders & the quantity the firm planned to produce (i.e., the MPS)

67
Q

Dependent Demand

A

Dependent Demand•Describes the internal demand for parts based on the demand of the final product in which the parts are used. Subassemblies, components, & raw materials are examples of dependent demand items.

68
Q

Independent Demand

A

The demand for final products & service parts. It has a demand pattern affected by trends, seasonal patterns, & general market conditions.

69
Q

•Dependent demand is usually ______.

A

calculated

70
Q

Independent demand is usually _______.

A

forecasted

71
Q

Engineering document

A

An engineering document that shows an inclusive listing of all component parts & assemblies making up the final product.

72
Q

Planning factor.

A

Shows the parent-component relationships & the specific units of components known as the planning factor.additional notes - how many units goes into one unit

73
Q

(planned order releases)

A

Enables the firm to compute (not forecast) the time-phased, net requirements of the components (planned order releases)

74
Q

Bill of material (BOM)

A

A bill of materials (also known as a BOM or bill of material) is a comprehensive list of parts, items, assemblies and other materials required to create a product, as well as instructions required for gathering and using the required materials.

75
Q

What is Level 0 in BOM

A
  • Finish good - independent demand - mps
76
Q

Can a level 0 be a component?

A

No

77
Q
