Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning (DDMRP)
DDMRP is a proven and rapidly-growing methodology which has shown success in reducing inventories and improving service across a broad spectrum of industries.
It works by decoupling the supply chain, creating independence between supply and demand. It means each node can operate efficiently, without the disruption of demand and supply variability, breaking the classic bullwhip effect.
Over the past few years we have implemented DDMRP in many manufacturing facilities. We know how to bring you the benefits of decoupling, whilst not impacting the value of your current SCM tools.
