About Forecasting and Production Planning and Control

GoConqr Original

What the resources cover

This unit sits in the Planning and Supply Chain strand of Industrial engineering and quality. The material runs from forecasting to the shop floor. You will find maps on Time Series & Projection, FORECASTING METHODS and Demand Management, then a long run on aggregate planning, master planning, hierarchical production planning and material requirements planning.

Where to start

Begin with the vocabulary. The Forecasting Module Vocabulary flashcard deck is a quick way to meet the terms. One untitled flashcard deck covers capacity: design capacity, effective capacity, actual output, utilisation and efficiency, plus long-term and medium-term capacity planning.

Next, move to planning levels. The deck Productions & operations: Exam 2 asks what aggregate planning is, what its goal is, and what goes into intermediate planning. The deck L#7 Production Control defines planning, control and the P:D ratio.

Maps for the big picture

The aggregate planning maps are a good core. Aggregate planning today sets out how output levels and resource mix are decided, and lists strategies such as a level workforce with a steady output rate, or matching demand period by period. Another map frames the plan as a 3 to 18 month horizon, weighing output rates, employment, inventory, back orders and subcontracting.

After that, look at the MRP maps. MRP P2P - Second mindmap covers the material master and MRP types. For software, the Teamcenter Manufacturing Process Planner map lists benefits such as shorter time to production and lower operating costs. The Scheduling performance evaluation in hybrid production environments map goes into flexible, demand-driven scheduling.

Using quizzes and maps together

Read a map, close it, then try a quiz on the same idea. Chapter 8 GSCM asks what material planning is concerned with and what form its proposals take. Other quizzes include BSCM, PROD315 and OM Chp 13- Final. Wrong answers show you which map to reopen.

Pick one topic today, open its map and try the matching quiz, then make a few flashcards of your own for the terms you missed.

Frequently asked questions

Which resource should I open first?

Try the Forecasting Module Vocabulary flashcard deck to get the terms straight. Then open one of the Aggregate Planning maps for the overall picture of how demand, capacity and output fit together, and finish with a quiz such as Chapter 8 GSCM to check what stuck.

What do the mind maps on this page cover?

They cover forecasting methods, time series, demand management, aggregate planning, master planning, hierarchical production planning and material requirements planning. Several maps follow production planning and execution case studies, and others look at machine scheduling and scheduling in hybrid production environments.

Who are these resources for?

They suit university students and professional candidates working on forecasting and production planning, and teachers who want ready-made material. Most of the resources are at university level, with a smaller share aimed at professionals. Students can revise terms, test themselves and check understanding of planning steps.

Are the resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself, so styles and depth vary from one map or quiz to the next.

Are there flashcards on capacity planning?

Yes. One untitled flashcard deck asks you to define capacity, design capacity, effective capacity and actual output, and to explain utilisation and efficiency. It also covers long-term and medium-term capacity planning, so it works well before the aggregate planning maps.

What if I can't find the topic I need?

Look at neighbouring topics first, since planning ideas overlap. A master planning map may help with a master production plan question, for example. If something is still missing, you can make your own map, quiz or flashcards with a free account and save your scores.
