1. 11/10: MRP continued. Review: Material Requirements Planning Need to know: –Master Schedule –Bill of Materials –Lead times –Due date. Go to spreadsheet.

2. Group Exercise You make the PalmPointer, a handy personal digital assistant. You have received an order for 200 units to be shipped in 12 minutes. A PalmPointer is made of a LCD screen, 4 buttons, 1 toggle button, and a motherboard. The motherboard is made of 3 processors, 2 clock batteries, and a circuit board. Assembly time for the assemblies are as follows: PalmPointer2 minutesLCD screen1 buttons2toggle button3 motherboard6processors2 batteries1circuit board3 Create an MRP schedule to determine when to begin assembling each component.

3. Lot sizing lot-for-lot (L4L): order exactly the amount you want. Lot req. sized: order in certain amounts (ex. a dozen eggs).

4. Scheduled Receipts Units (of any component) that you have already scheduled to come in at a particular time.

5. On-Hand Inventory Units (of any component) that you already have in stock (at the beginning).

6. Gross Req. vs. Net Req. Gross required is the total amount of a component you need. Net required is (Gross) - (On-hand inventory) - (Scheduled receipts)

7. Planned Order Receipts Planned Order Releases What you PLAN to RECEIVE what you ORDERED. What you PLAN to RELEASE in an ORDER.

9. Group Exercise You have to ship an order for 200 PalmPointers in 12 hours. A PalmPointer (2 h) is made of a LCD screen (1 h), 4 buttons (2 h), 1 toggle button (3 h), and a motherboard (6 h). The motherboard is made of 3 processors (2 h), 2 clock batteries (1 h), and a circuit board (3 h). You already have 1000 buttons and 50 motherboards on hand. You are expecting (by the note that the last shift left for you) 50 LCD screens in 6 hours and 50 motherboards in 4 hours. Create an MRP schedule to determine when to begin assembling each component.
