Description for case is given below :
The inventory manager of sales and distribution for Toffee Inc., a confectionery company, had just concluded a meeting with all relevant personnel. The meeting had not been entirely positive. The words of the production manager still echoed in his ears: “If the ingredient inventory is not re-examined and re-worked to the firm’s advantage then [soon] the final products based on these ingredients will cease to yield the kind of profits that the firm expects.” The inventory manager needed to prepare a comprehensive forecasting and inventory management plan with a view to minimize the cost of managing the supply chain by judicious use of resources, better forecasting, and improvement in the ingredient inventory purchasing and management systems.

Description for case is given below :
The Oracle acquisition of PeopleSoft in 2005 seems like ancient history (at least in technology years). In fact, the PeopleSoft acquisition is not even Oracle’s latest major acquisition (Siebel was acquired in September 2005). One of the primary reasons that Oracle acquired PeopleSoft was to gain access to the 10,000+ customer base of PeopleSoft (and JD Edwards), which provides more than $1 billion in annual revenue. This customer base is a gift that keeps on giving in the form of a lucrative maintenance stream. Discusses options that PeopleSoft customers and, by extension, other enterprise software owners pursue to minimize enterprise resource planning (ERP) ongoing costs of ownership. Encourages students to evaluate several criteria that can be used to lower ERP costs.

Description for case is given below :
The general manager of the Wilkins plant in Paso Robles, California has received instructions from the head office to reduce inventory by 30% in the next quarter. Although inventory had been accumulating over the past years, this had been seen as a benefit to the company for a couple of reasons. One is that the cost of raw materials has risen in the past year. The second is that the company has a policy of no layoffs, so having inventory in stock allows the company to minimize the use of overtime and temporary workers. The general manager wondered whether revising the production planning process would be enough to solve Wilkins’ inventory problems.

Case Solution for Material Requirements Planning at A-Cat Corp.
Complete Case details are given below :
Case Name :      Material Requirements Planning at A-Cat Corp.
Authors :           Jitendra R. Sharma, Tinu Agrawal
Source :             Ivey Publishing
Case ID :            W12868
Discipline :        Operations Management
Case Length :    05 pages
Solution Sample availability : YES
Plagiarism : NO (100% Original work)
Description for case is given below :
Material requirements planning (MRP) systems have been widely used by manufacturing firms to maintain an optimum flow of inputs for best production results. By using an MRP system, a firm can prepare a production plan that specifies the number of sub-assemblies that go into the final products along with the exact timeline of an order, from placement to completion. This case analyzes how Sunita Menon’s adoption of an MRP system at A-CAT Corp. (A-CAT) has improved the production-planning process. To make one unit of A-CAT’s main product, P0110, requires two P0X units and two P0Y units; in addition, each P0X unit needs two types of subparts: four P1X1 units and three P1X2 units. The case examines the intricacies of procurement, warehousing and processing costs of various material components by critically evaluating different techniques in practice. Using situational scenarios, the case presents lot-sizing techniques – including lot for lot, economic order quantity, least total cost and least unit cost – for balancing costs such as set-up costs, ordering costs and inventory-holding costs.

The newly hired head of Strategic Resources Planning and Management at Royal Bank of Canada Investments (RBCI) must develop a “dashboard” mechanism for strategically assessing and managing RBCI’s non-interest expenses, excluding brokerage fees associated with providing value-added service to clients. After a week of analysis, two things became apparent: first, the four major business units within RBCI were operating independently, neither collaborating on projects nor sharing information; second, most of the non-interest expenses were related to information technology projects. Considering that RBCI was spending nearly $700,000 per day on service delivery, the senior management team was extremely eager to see what the head of Strategic Resources Planning and Management would propose. Presents information technology portfolio management challenges facing large organizations, and challenges students to develop performance metrics that will be useful at the most senior levels of the organization.
