Glossary of Terms:

 

Manufacturing Resource Planning  - A fully-integrated planning and control system, providing coordination and communication among finance, marketing, and production departments.
Manufacturing Resource Planning (MRP) takes into account plans from these entities and assists management in developing a production plan, which must be adjusted on a daily or weekly basis to satisfy changes in demand.
Initially MRP was a list of components needed to produce a specified quantity of items as well as when and how manufacturing intends to use these components.
