Dear Sir,
We are in the business of manufacturing Industrial Machine as per customer requirement and 70% engineering is done fresh for every customer order .
We are using Project System for manufacturing and have followed the following appraoch :
a) On Receipt of Customer Order , we first create a Project . Parallely Engineering activity , BOM preparation , Roting preparation is started . We are not creating WBS BOM .
b) For Advance procurement , relevant items are attached under an activity in a WBS
c) FERT item requirement is attached in the Project under an activity in the WBS. We are not using BOM transfer apparoch.
d) MRP run is made against the project (MD51) and Planned Order , Purchase Requisitions gets generated .
e) As BOM/Routing preparation is still in progress , SO MRP run is made multiple times . For a Project on average we make MRP run approx 5 times . At this stage BOM/Routing reaches to 100%.
We seek the guidence from the experts gurus that whether the apparoch being followed by us is a correct one . Incase the above approach is not the correct one , we request expert gurus to kindly guide us about the best apparoch to be followed .
We will be highly greatful for the kind help pl .
