ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented decision support tool serves as an Advanced Material Requirements Planning (AMRP) solver to generate a match between existing assets and demands across multiple manufacturing facilities within the boundaries established by the manufacturing specifications and process flows and business policies to determine what (and when) is needed to start internally or purchase externally to meet all customer demands of current interest. The matching must take into account manufacturing or production specifications and business guidelines. To accomplish the task of deciding what to do when to meet customer demand, the AMRP solver explodes demands into a build plan for purchased and manufacturing orders for end items as well as components and raw materials necessary to produce those end items. The AMRP solver combines traditional MRP decision technology with linear programming (LP) decision technology to provide both speed and intelligence in the matching process.
