لوایح دو سطحی برنامه تولید ارشد و برنامه ریزی به هنگام در زمینه برنامه ریزی منابع تولید

The evolution of industrial firms has recently passed from a strong growth phase to a phase where there is a greater complexification of products: widening the range of products in catalogues, diversification and personalization of models. The current trend is to use, with production management techniques such as classical manufacturing resource planning (MRP2), the concept of two level master production schedule (MPS), using planning bills with percentages indicating the probability that such or such an option will be used. This necessitates, however, the implementation of a rigorous approach to continuous improvement using just in time (JiT) and total quality (TQ) concepts. In the first part of our paper we discuss principles of operating two level MPS; secondly, we analyze these effects on management and organization. Our paper is based on a case study.
