What is meant by an integral approach to Materials Management?

Question

can someone explain this in detail... thanks

Answer 1

You have to ensure that all of the parts of a Materials Management system work together, such as a pull system that flags purchasing to buy parts needed to manufacture your products.

Receiving material - it everything correct? part number, quantity, on-time?

In-house movement - are all products stored correctly to prevent damage/theft, are they organized for easy finding, do you have too much/little on hand, obsolete product removed/scrapped, how do you let purchasing know when stock levels are low?

Final product - do you have enough manufactured for your final customer for their daily requirements without overstocking? Can you manufacturer parts if the customer needs immediately?

So all of these have to work together for the manufacturing process to flow. If you run out of parts, you can't produce the parts the customers need right away.

That is a general overview. Good Luck.

what "is going around" which potential what you supply off, "comes around" which potential you get returned. a different cultural way of describing how karma works, What you supply out comes returned to you
