OpenDevelopment

The collection of processes associated with developing a comprehensive plan to make products and service to support the supply chain operations plan. This process determines net capacity requirements, considering make/production asset availability, maintenance plans, Material Sourcing Plans, and existing work-in-process.

The capacity planning process is based on three dimensions:

• Determining demand for production (e.g. orders, forecasted orders, inventory levels (including linearity)
• Available capacity (e.g. fixed and flexible capacity)
• Time-phasing of raw materials, sub-assemblies, and/or semi-finished products

Alternative names for Plan Make include: Production Planning, MPS (MPS).

Use Cases

• In a repair/refurbishment center: Capacity planning
• In a manufacturing plant: Production capacity planning
• In a MTS manufacturing plant: Production Order REQ determination

Notes

MPS or MPS is a commonly used term to describe the production plan. This originates in the incorrect use of the word schedule in supply chain. A schedule is a fine-tuning of a plan.
