Material Requirement Planning (MRP) | The Way I See It

For many fashion businesses, MRP simply means calculating approximately how much fabric is required, adding a margin on top of that, then booking the fabric order. Marker making is seen as a parallel, but separate process, and little thought is given to the handling of the fabric in the cutting room.Instead, apparel companies should have a dedicated person whose sole responsibility is managing materials from planning to cutting. With proper implementation, your Materials Manager could save your business 5% or more in fabric utilization.If you love Tukatalks, please leave us a five star review on Apple podcasts, or wherever you listen to podcasts. FOLLOW RAM SAREEN:LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tukatech/CONNECT:Website: tukatech.com/tukatalksYouTube: youtube.com/c/TUKATALKSNever miss an episode!
