Zusammenfassung

In MRP-paketen ist es möglich, Normen für Sicherheitsbestände zu verwenden. Jedoch keines der MRP-Pakete bietet Hedging als eine alternative Möglichkeit für Sicherheitsnormen an, obwohl diese Technik aus theoretischer Sicht mehrere Vorteile bietet. An der Universität in Eindhoven hat man versucht, Hedging in ein existierendes MRP-Paket einzubauen. Der funktionale Entwurf zeigte: Was auf den ersten Blick aussah wie eine einfache Ergänzung eines MRP-Pakets, hatte schließlich einen großen Einfluß auf viele MRP-Module.

Summary

In standard-MRP packages it is possible to use safety stocknorms. In none of the standard-MRP packages however, it is possible to use hedging as an alternative technique for safety stocknorras, although this technique has several advantages from a theoretical point of view. At Eindhoven University of Technology an attempt is made to incorporate hedging in an existing MRP-package.

From the functional design it appeared, that what originally seemed to be a simple addition to the options available in an MRP-package, turned out to have a rather large impact on many of the MRP-modules.
