The requirements are as follows a) Master production schedule (actual demand, and/or forecasted combined with finite capacity), the BOM (Bill Of Materials) for products demanded, the stock items (on hand, and lead times).
Julie Colcough, Director, Eurobase Ltd "Working with MXI we reduced stock 43% and improved Cash Flow by 19.8%"
All of this is calculated but the MRP engine to determine the most efficient purchasing schedules allowing just-in-time ordering of critical path components which is one of the back bones to manufacturing software enabling lean manufacturing. It can be combined with EOQ (economic order quantity), and bulk ordering (e.g. for rings/fasteners and smaller items).

The objective is to satisfy the demand without having to carry large amounts of safety stock. Lean manufacturing then kicks in with the Manufacturer needing less cash to run the business. Fewer slow moving items in stock requires less space and manfacturing team members
Productivity starts improving and as you can then schedule purchasing, production, capicity to satisfy demand, seeing needs quicker using less resource increasing customer satisfaction with On-Time deliveries moving towards 90-97%. All because your MRP good manufacturing/ production control and scheduling system is driving lean manufacturing. "What if" business analysis is easy.
