Sponsors Advanced Planning System Provider Institute developing and promoting DDMRP Industrial partner (investigating DDMRP)
Motivation: Can DDMRP be a game changer? DDMRP average result : -20% 13% -48% service level inventory leadtime reduction Can these numbers be achieved in all industries?
Motivation: Can DDMRP be a game changer? Financial impact: inventory service level leadtime reduction ROI
What is DDRMP? DDMRP is a multi-echelon supply chain planning approach that combines the best of lean, MRP, six-sigma and the theory of constraints Position Protect Pull 4 5 2 3 1 Strategic Demand Execution Buffer Dynamic driven and buffer profiles adjustments planning priorities positioning
What is DDMRP? Coupled MRP Decoupled DDMRP DDMRP Leverages decouplingpoints to make the planning problem easier !
What is DDMRP?: Inventory buffers Top Of Green Order volume Define the order size and 80 the order frequency Top Of Yellow Provides inventory over 100 lead time Top Of Red 50 Protect against variability Buffer levels (in product unit)
What is DDMRP?: Run chart Example of DDMRP run chart Volume product unit Time (days) Sum of TOPOFGREEN Sum of TOPOFYELLOW Sum of TOPOFRED Sum of NETFLOWPOSITION
What is in for me? Could that work in my company ?
Problem Setting and Research Question DDMRP uses decoupled points to create a more stable and suitable environment for MRP. Would that bring better results than a APS? Capacity Constraint Sourcing decision Shelf-life Constraint Research Question: What would be the added value of DDMRP in finite capacity planning under uncertainty?
Methodology Qualitative/ Quantitative part : What Simulation analysis : Let’s compare was the impact of DDMRP on companies that KPIs of plans made with APS and DDMRP implemented it? Inventory turn Service Level Interviews : A few Survey : Many Simulation : Comparing APS companies, in-depth companies, targeted and DDMRP in a controlled investigation questions environment

Could it work for my company: DDMRP or APS APS heuristic APS solver DDMRP KPIs Easy to understand Easy to maintain Non-trivial solutions Operational constraints
DDMRP and the operations Graph showing the frequency of the answer Improvements in the operations with DDMRP 100% 80% 60% 40% 20% 0% Planning Clear Better control Smoother Relevant Stability priorities over the dependent information operations requirements Agree Neither Agree nor Disagree Disagree Cannot Say
DDMRP streamlines operations Education program across the company Educate everyone on the basic of flow Align objectives DDMRP implementations lead to streamlined operations across the internal supply chain
Could it work for my company? It seems like DDMRP can handle complex operational constraints!
Conclusion: What is the added value of DDMRP? Easy planning method that can have a positive financial impact and provides a competitive edge Provides results similar to a mathematical solver Streamline the operations
