Discussion:
Consider an example of a type of company that could be helped by running an MRP system. Response the following questions about such a company:
• What is the company that you have chosen?
• What product(s) is being produced that could cause the company to use MRP?
• Is the company a producer of a high volume of units?
• Do you believe that there would be any use for MRP logic in a service environment (rather than in an environment where a product is being produced)? Explain your reasoning.
