DESCRIPTION
Despite MRP having been around for nearly forty years many businesses still don't seem to be getting the benefits they need from such a system. This presentation contains ten points that can help many businesses to improve the effectiveness of their system. Notes are included with each slide, as this slideshow was originally delivered to a group of manufacturing companies at the Advanced Manufacturing Forum in the North East of England.
