    Introduction
    Materials Requirement Planning (MRP) systems- first choice in the U.S. for planning & managing purchasing, production, & inventories. By end of the 20th century, U.S. business was changing. Firms were building multiplant international sites, Executives spent more time dealing with international subcontractors, currencies, & languages. Existing MRP systems could not handle added tasks. Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems were made to replace legacy MRP systems & coordinate information requirements for purchasing, planning, scheduling & distribution in a complex global environment.

    Development of Legacy MRP Systems


    Legacy MRP systems which were implemented in the 1960s, 1970s & 1980s, describe an older information system at a production scheduling operational level within an organization. MRP systems lasted beyond their intended life span. Communication between legacy systems is limited. Visibility across functional areas is restricted. Lack analytical capabilities.

    Development of Legacy MRP SystemsSystemsCont.


    Materials Requirement Planning (MRP) Process
    Uses information from bills of material, master production schedules, & inventories to compute planned order releases of dependent demand items. Links the internal operations of an organization, such as purchasing, production, inventory control & material planning. Does not, however, provide production or capabilities analysis, nor does it probe the impact of changes in production levels on financial results. Closed-Loop MRP- An attempt to further develop MRP into a more formal planning & control system, & was a natural extension of the MRP system.

    Manufacturing Resource Planning MRP IIWas the next development of the closed-loop MRP system in which: Business & sales plans were incorporated. A financial function was added to link financial management to operations, marketing, & other functional areas. MRP II now includes other functions of the organization. Problems with MRP II: Primarily focuses on one units internal operations. Lacks capability to link the operations of firms foreign branches. Lacks capability to deal directly w/supply chain members.

    Development of Enterprise Resource Planning


    What is ERP and how did it come about?
    ERP system is an umbrella system tying a variety of specialized systems, (i.e., production & inventory, purchasing, logistics, HR, finance, accounting, customer relationship, & supplier relationship management). ERP utilizes a centralized & shared database system to tie the entire organization together in which information is entered once at the source & made available to all users. The emergence & growth of supply chain management, ecommerce, & global operations have created the need to exchange information directly with suppliers, customers, & foreign branches of organizations.

    Firms replaced legacy MRP systems with efficient ERP systems to reduce costs & deal w/Y2K problem. Information systems that were previously off limits are now accessible to smaller organizations.

    Implementing ERP Systems


    Research analysts & industrial practitioners are still debating the usefulness of ERP, as well as the advantages & disadvantages of using best-ofbreed solution and single integrator solution. Best-of-breed- use best application for each supply chain function Problem: multiple databases may have to be used to link the multiple applications from different vendors. Single integrator- applications from one vendor. Problem: A users processes must conform to the approaches used in the software logic. Conforming a companys process to a software program is a radical departure from conventional practice.
