4 steps of MRP

This is a quick visual outline of the way an MRP system works and how MRP improves your business

Materials Requirement Planning (MRP) is what companies use to streamline production of goods and inventory management. It is an automated system that uses sales, forecasting, cost of materials, storage capacity, and other data to optimize a business’s production schedule.
