Course information
The course begins with introducing planning and control hierarchy in
manufacturing systems including Aggregate Production Planning, Master
Production Scheduling and Materials Production Planning with their
working systematic. Then capacity planning modules are explained in
accordance with the aforementioned planning hierarchy. Then, Distribution
Content
Resources Planning and Manufacturing Resources Planning are included.
Then, Enterprise Resources Planning (ERP) is focused with its modules,
implementation plan and critical success factors. Moreover, order
management, production planning and transportation management modules
of ERP are demonstrated using a contemporary ERP package.
