JAMS MRP

Detailed Features:

• MRP: NOT TOO MUCH TOO SOON
  
  Your company just received a large order from a new account. Initial deliveries begin in 6 months. The sub-assemblies on the 4th level of the Bill Of Material have a 120 day lead-time on the raw material components needed to manufacture. How will the purchasing and delivery of that material affect not only your investment in inventories, but other orders from existing customers? The answer to this and other questions is the JAMS MRP Module.
  
  The MRP Generation Program determines which parts and sub-assemblies are required to fulfill demand. All lead, queue, manufacturing and outside processing times are calculated for each part or sub-assembly. The beginning date for the purchasing of parts or manufacturing of sub-assemblies is calculated and made available on the various MRP screens and reports. Work Orders and purchasing requirements are generated so jobs may be scheduled and all required parts ordered.
  
  Non-MRP tracked items (bulk items, tools and assembly aids) can be added to the respective BOM for release to the manufacturing floor. This ensures that all required parts, tools and information are available to manufacturing upon release of a work order.
  
  
• MRP GENERATION
  
  The JAMS MRP Module will support two methods to determine the resources required for manufacturing demand.
  
  Incremental Regeneration (IRG) This method determines manufacturing requirements by updating the resource file with changes that have occurred throughout the day. The interval of the IRG is user selectable and can be time or transaction based.
  
  Full Regeneration (FRG) This method determines manufacturing requirements by a complete analysis of all demand. After a successful run, the old resource requirements are cleared and replaced with the newly calculated requirements.

• WINDOWS NT AT YOUR SERVICE
  
  The JAMS MRP module has been designed to run as a Microsoft Windows NT service on any system on the network. This key design characteristic allows the system to deliver information in a fast, easy-to-administer process. Since it functions as a NT service, MRP can be performed in the traditional (full) regenerative mode as well as in an incremental mode without sacrificing performance. The service runs on either Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft Windows 2000 Server, Microsoft Windows 2003 Server or Microsoft Windows XP Professional. This is why the JAMS MRP module can deliver mainframe type response on a NT network. You no longer have to sacrifice performance for functionality in your system.
