Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Demand-driven material requirements planning (D,D,M,R,P,) is a relatively new type of ordering system that can be used for dependent and independent demand items at any point in the supply chain. D,D,M,R,P, strategically positions inventory to achieve all the benefits of modern supply chain management (reduce inventory, lead times to the customer, and the bullwhip effect and increase customer service and asset usage efficiency) without needing to rely on safety stocks of finished goods or a pure make-to-order environment. Instead, D,D,M,R,P, determines how to shrink total lead times by creating buffer inventories of key components that have longer lead times than other components making up a finished good.
