Production 2

A

System planowania produkcji jest niezbędny, aby zapewnić, przebiegowi produkcji, maszynom,

sprzętowi, umiejętnością pracowników (produkcyjnym) (pracownikom) i materiały lepszą organizację i rentowność.

Jest wiele czynników, które należy uwzględnić w systemie planowania. Na przykład, firma może wymagać(potrzebować) wiele różnych czynników/składników (wielu etapów planowania). Również popyt może się zmieniać codziennie w tym ciągle zmieniającym się świecie. Nieustannie przychodzące nowe zlecenia (zamówienia). Niektóre są odwoływane (anulowane), z powodu awarii w warsztacie; piętrzące się opóźnienia, spóźnione lub zbyt wczesne dostawy [od dostawców]. Trudno jest śledzić wszystkie te zmiany ręcznie. Na wypadek takich sytuacji, wiele firm utrzymuje dużą ilość towaru w zapasach(magazynach) dla bezpieczeństwa. Jednakże, jeśli firma posiada skuteczny system planowania produkcji, nie ma potrzeby, aby utrzymywać wysoki poziom [towaru] na składzie. Pieniądze zamrożone w magazynowanym towarze można odzyskać (użyć, towar można spieniężyć). W tym samym czasie, dodatkowe koszty magazynowania towaru zostaną zmiejszone.
