Forecasting Methods and Implementation of DRP (Distribution Requirement Planning) Methods in Determining the Master Production Schedule

摘要

PT ABC President Indonesia is a manufacturing company engaged in the food sector by producing ABC noodles and Nu Greentea. At PT ABC President Indonesia, the production scheduling process is one of the main processes carried out to determine the number of products that must be produced. Based on the problems that occur regarding stock, it is proposed that the best forecasting method is based on the time series of each Distribution Centre (DC) and processing Distribution Centre (DC) requests using the Distribution Requirement Planning (DRP) method. Where the DRP method is used, so that the company can meet the demand of every DC so that there is no shortage of products and the production process continues to run without the company experiencing losses. In addition, with the use of DRP method there will be additional stock so that if there is a defect, the company still has stock remaining so that it can still meet the customer demands for each DC and the product distribution process runs more regularly.
