MRP IMPLEMENTATION
MRP Implementation Master-Data Readiness Checklist
Prepare bills of material, routings, work centers, inventory records and planning parameters before an MRP implementation or migration.
Product and process data
- Confirm item identifiers, units of measure, revisions and active/inactive status.
- Validate bills of material against released engineering data and actual production usage.
- Review routing sequence, setup time, run time, yield and alternate work-center logic with production owners.
Planning parameters
- Review purchasing and production lead times using recent operating evidence rather than legacy defaults.
- Identify minimum order quantities, safety stock, reorder rules and planning fences that materially change recommendations.
- Reconcile on-hand, allocated, work-in-process and open-order quantities before cutover.
Migration controls
- Assign an owner and validation rule to every imported master-data domain.
- Keep source-to-target mapping, exception logs and sign-off evidence for the migration.
- Run parallel or controlled pilot planning cycles and compare recommendations before relying on the new system operationally.
