Wichita Chapter of APICS #71

Seminar Topic:

“Materials Planning in a Demand

Driven World”

Carol Ptak, CFPIM, CIRM (see bio, pg. 3)

and

Chad Smith (see bio, pg. 4)

Carol Ptak and Chad Smith, co-authors of Orlicky’s Ma-

terial Requirements Planning, Third Revised Addition,

(McGraw-Hill, 2011) will offer an in-depth exploration of

the logic behind the innovative and groundbreaking multi

-echelon inventory and materials planning and execution

method known as Demand Driven MRP .

The workshop will describe and clarify the poor business

results embedded in most of today’s demand and supply

planning systems; discusses the core problems causing

the results; presents and details an alternative demand

driven structure for planning and controlling materials

flow; and presents initial results from actual implementa-

tions. This new solution helps companies tackle three per-

vasive 21st Century problems: unacceptable inventory

performance; unacceptable service level performance;

and high related expenses and waste.

April PDM Topic:

“Managing Uncertainty in Demand

and Supply”

Carol Ptak, CFPIM, CIRM (see bio, pg. 3)

Supply chain management integrates people, pro-

cesses, and programs and controls the flow of

goods, information, and cash to deliver on the

goal of profitably delighting the customer. Effec-

tive supply chain management is about much

more than automatically sending requirements to

suppliers. This session will dispel the manage-

ment myths about how to focus a company’s

products and services to meet the needs of the

customers. Attendees will learn how uncertainty

in either demand or supply creates barriers to ef-

fective supply chain management and the best

strategies to mitigate those risks.

**** This presentation is included in your regis-

tration for the April 11 Seminar. If you are una-

ble to attend the seminar, you may register for the

PDM only per the instructions here. ****

President’s Message

We had a wonderful joint meeting with the folks from ASQ. And while it may appear at

first glance Homeland Security may appear dull and inappropriate for our group it was

anything but. I think it opened up a lot of eyes as to just how ill-prepared our companies

are for extreme emergencies. They will do assessments for free and they are non-regulatory

so there is no risk involved. I encourage you to check out their website.

Of course the big news here is Carol Ptak coming for our annual seminar and PDM. We are indeed very for-

tunate to have someone of this caliber speak in Wichita. She is very dynamic and always well received wher-

ever she presents. You really should attend the seminar if you can.

We have started preparing for next year and are on track to have four plant tours. More on that as the infor-

mation becomes available.

The latest information I have received on CPIMs is that the total is now over 100,000 world-wide. Classes

will be posted on the website as they become available or you can contact me directly if you would like to

discuss.
