1.1) Define the concept of MRP. What does it stand for? Why is it necessary to support production planning with and MRP? (10 points)
1.2) Imagine that a production facility would not have implemented an MRP system: what would be the negative effects? Explain your concepts including suppliers, inventories and productivity. (15 points)
1.3) What is BOM (Bill of Materials) Explain the concept and give examples. What is the relation with MRP? (15 points)
