DDMRP provides theory and software for combining MRP/ERP with various improvement methods that attacked inventory to improve inventory productivity and reduce cost of production-distribution system - supply chain.

DDMRP - SUPPLY CHAIN MRP & TECHNOLOGY FOR A DEMAND DRIVEN WORLD

The mantra of DDMRP is “position, protect, and pull”.  The planning and execution steps of  DDMRP are:

• Strategic inventory positioning
• Buffer profiles and levels
• Dynamic adjustments
• Demand driven planning
• Visible and collaborative execution.

About DDMRP

The term “demand driven” was introduced by PeopleSoft in 2002.  In 2007, American Manufacturing Research gave the term a re-birth by using it as a part of their “Demand Driven Value Network”.

In 2011, Orlicky’s Material Requirements Planning (Ptak and Smith) published the first blueprint of Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning positioning it as a new demand/supply management logic.

Demand Driven MRP supply chain software

Our Demand Driven MRP supply chain software provides next generation materials, inventory and production control planning and execution applications for global manufacturers and wholesale distributors who need to align inventory to true market demand, compress lead times, improve service levels and increase visibility across the supply chain.

It is compatible with any enterprise ERP solution.

MEIO (enabling DDMRP concepts) - OMP Plus optimizes inventory 

Multi-Echelon Inventory Optimization (MEIO) calculates optimal safety stock values at every echelon of the supply chain for Make-To-Stock items. To do so, MEIO extends the single-echelon safety stock logic using desired service levels, observed demand patterns, forecast and lead times, as well as their variability.

Demand-Driven MRP in Short (DD MRP) has been introduced into SAP S/4 HANA with its 1709 Release.

14 March 2019

Key Points about DD MRP

It’s Available in SAP From 1709
DD MRP works on Buffer level Stock.
It captures Spikes in Demand
It’s only for selected Materials (high variability)
Stock-outs & overstock will be controlled
It supports MTS, MTO & ATO
It’s a Combination of Pull & Push
It’s not order based planning
It’s not an auto driven tool requires manual interventions.
It requires a lot of calculations and trails.
At the moment it won’t support Fashion, Retail, VC Model

Key Parameters of DDMRP

Identification of material
Maintaining Buffers
Adoption of Sudden Spikes
Manual Interventions
Visible and Collaborative Execution

A new approach to supply chain management

When it comes to designing supply chains today, it is no longer a  one-off exercise to determine the network. Now its is dynamic engineering and optimization of  the structure as a result of  predictions of  capacities, materials availabilities and demands globally. Planning  dynamically seeks for new disruptions and tries to counterbalance impacts. Intelligent planning algorithms are developed and they do the real time planning. On the shop floor,  the traditional MRP logic is being questioned and introduction of demand driven steering mechanisms is taking plae. Supply chains are composed of  automatic transport and warehousing systems. Modern supply chain management is based on a strong and independent supply chain governance that supports self-organization and powerful IT.

To do this on a real-time basis and efficiently,  standard ERP tools are combined  with new technology. Big data architecture complements the classical ERP landscape and makes use of IoT and AI technologies. Process mining helps to identify the relevant use cases that determine the future architecture. Systems and software are now developed in an agile way through consistent architecture cuts. IT really develops towards OT (Operations Technology).

Demand-Driven Supply Chain Management: Transformational Performance Improvement
Simon Eagle
Kogan Page Publishers, 03-Apr-2017 - Business & Economics - 280 pages
Many manufacturing and distribution companies are moving from the traditional 'forecast push MRP' to demand-driven supply chain management (SCM). Demand-driven SCM is an 'end-to-end' supply chain planning and replenishment process that enables companies to achieve their planned service levels from up to half the average level of inventory and requiring significantly less throughput capacity - irrespective of the level of demand volatility or lead-time length.

Demand-Driven Supply Chain Management is the go-to source for industry supply chain/operations executives and students. It describes the 'what, how and why' of the demand-driven SCM process. The key themes in the book are: what is demand-driven? why is demand-driven so effective? how to operate a demand-driven supply chain? and how to adopt the demand-driven process in your company? Readers can quickly grasp the essential concepts from one of numerous self-contained sections that present the book's key concepts from different perspectives. Online resources available include full-colour figures.

We evaluate its effectiveness relative to two other widely accepted approaches – MRP II and Kanban/Lean production – through a series of structured computer simulation experiments. The results strongly indicate that DDMRP does represent a superior approach – one that warrants further academic study.

The present analyzes the implementation of DDMRP in a real company. The results clearly show that using DDMRP the company increased visibility in the supply chain. In addition, the inventory level was reduced by 52.53% while material consumption was increased by 8.7%. These results were achieved while maintaining the high service level.
