Material Resource Planning
Manufacturing for the
Future
Jesta’s multi-stage Material Resource Planning (MRP) module analyzes customer demand and manages your resources to implement an optimal balance between supply and demand. It ensures manufacturing is completed on time with automated calculations that determine what materials need to be sourced and in what quantities, considers production time and possible delays in receiving these materials, and establishes the date the finished product will be available.
Combined with Jesta’s Demand Forecasting module, it accurately predicts your customer’s future demand. This way, you can correctly plan and automate the optimal timing of purchases and, in turn, deliveries to customers, keeping them satisfied while reducing your own inventory costs.
