The purpose of this simulation project is to provide you with an opportunity to use the POM-QM for Windows software to solve an MRP problem.

POM-QM for Windows software

For this part of the Individual Project, you need to use the POM-QM for Windows software:

Read Appendix IV of the Operations Management (Heizer & Render, 2011) textbook.
Launch the POM-QM for Windows software and from the main menu select Module, and then Materials Resource Planning.
Program the MRP for the Individual Project Problem below and solve it with the use of POM-QM for Windows. (Refer to Appendix IV in the Heizer and Render (2011) textbook.)

Individual Project Problem

The product structure tree for the finished product A is given below.

The marketing department is estimating product A's demand to be 60 units for week 4 and 50 units for week 6. There is a scheduled receipt of 75 units for component D at the beginning of week 2. Various other MRP related information for the finished products and the components are provided below.

	A	C	D	E
On hand	12	170	9	5
Lead time	2	2	1	1
Lot size	LFL	150+	multiples of 40	multiples of 22

Provide the MRP tables for all the finished products and the components for the next six weeks.
