Production Planning and Control (PPC)

By: Sayankar, Vinod

A significant portion of the book focuses on Production Planning and Control as the backbone of operational effectiveness. Demand forecasting is presented as a critical planning tool influencing capacity decisions, aggregate planning, and scheduling. The integration of planning systems such as MPS, MRP, MRP II, CRP, and DRP highlights the structured approach required to balance demand and supply across time horizons. Production control mechanisms, including loading, sequencing, and scheduling supported by Gantt charts, ensure optimal utilization of resources while meeting delivery commitments.Inventory planning and control is addressed as a trade-off between service levels and cost optimization.
