Processes of logistics and planning are the bloodstream of the factory and thanks to them it is possible to manufacture high-quality products. User-friendly and easy-to-use planning tools, as well as reports and analyses available in real-time, are something that enables efficient work of the department. Undoubtedly, materials and semi-finisheds delivery delays to production cells are the main problem occurring between logistics and production. They are also one of the main reasons for the low production to plan ratio. The second major problem is miscommunication between the consumers (production department) and the suppliers (in-house logistics department). In a constantly changing plant environment, the lack of quick access to complex analyzes is a real problem. Lack of information causes a lack of action, and this further results in remaining unconscious in a pathological situation.

MRP Software plans your material requirements the same way you do, or would if you had the time, patience and accuracy. There is nothing magical or particularly complicated about inventory and production planning. Just like you, E-Z-MRP looks at all of your customer orders and forecasts and, from your bills of material (BOMs), figures out what you need to make and buy. It subtracts everything you already have on hand or on order. And then, from the lead time to make or buy each item, E-Z-MRP calculates when you should place your purchase orders and when you should open your work orders, so that you finish your products on time to meet the ship dates you promised to your customers. Unlike more complex material planning software products, E-Z-MRP software does not require you to do anything you don’t want to do in order to get just the production planning information you need.
