AmTran
The Arkansas division of AmTran manufactures diesel train
engines. With almost 4 million records
in the BOM file and an intricate multi-level manufacturing process, the MPS/MRP
process required almost 40 hours. Mr. Martellaro
supervised the implementation of modifications to the planning programs of BPCS
similar to those that he implemented at Littelfuse. The modifications cut the MPS/MRP planning time by over 65%.
