----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Demand Driven Planner Program is designed for planning, purchasing and supply chain personnel responsible for implementing and maintaining a DDMRP implementation.  Designed by the leading authorities on DDMRP at the Demand Driven Institute, the Demand Driven Planner program is comprised of 13 modules of in-depth DDMRP education. The DDP Program is THE official preparatory course for the Demand Driven Planner Professional (DDPP)™ certification exam.

Note: Each participant of the DDP will receive a certificate of completion from the Demand Driven Institute

About:

Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning is a formal multi-echelon planning and execution method to protect and promote the flow of relevant information through the establishment and management of strategically placed decoupling point stock buffers.  DDMRP combines some of the still relevant aspects of Material Requirements Planning (MRP) and Distribution Requirements Planning (DRP) with the pull and visibility emphases found in Lean and the Theory of Constraints and the variability reduction emphasis of Six Sigma.  These elements are successfully blended through key points of innovation in the DDMRP method.  DDMRP is the supply order generation and management engine of a Demand Driven Operating Model (DDOM).

Students will take away from this program all the details needed to launch their own DDRMP projects.  Included in the class will be demonstration and sharing of an excel pilot worksheet.   An introduction to the complete business case will be done.

DDP course preparation:

The official text of the DDP is Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning V2 (Ptak and Smith, Industrial Press 2018) (OPTIONAL)T

Program attendees should consider reviewing Precisely Wrong – Why Conventional Planning Fails and How to Fix It (Ptak and Smith, Industrial Press, 2017)

Program attendees should visit the DDMRP - All in One Page on this website.

Program attendees should review the Demand Driven Institute Dictionary.
