Material Planning Push Pull System
I have the following task, and I need some help getting started: Write a 2 page paper by answering the following questions from the article in the given link below.
Analyze the author's argument that material requirements planning (MRP) is being overshadowed by enterprise resource planning (ERP).
Should it be assumed that MRP is a "push" system rather than a "pull" system?
In what situations might the push system be an economically-wise system?
What issues about "pull" versus "push" assumptions are the author's arguments based on? Provide examples to support your response.
