It is not exactly breaking news that, due to the need for driving down costs and increasing efficiency, manufacturers (if not enterprises of all kinds) are increasingly subject to massive pressures. These pressures, however, often invalidate the traditional materials requirements planning (MRP) batch- and push-based production planning and associated economies of scale product costing approaches.
For this reason, there has been increased interest in the lean manufacturing support philosophy. To understand this trend, one need look no further than the enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems of the 1990s, which, unfortunately, are cognitive (i.e., sending well-devised “plans of mice and men”, which, without feedback from the real-world would “often go astray”) rather than reflexive in nature. In addition, there is a host of other well-publicized MRP-related problems, such as complex bills of material (BOMs), inefficient workflows, transactions and activities that add no value, and poor (typically manual) data collection. It is not surprising then that companies struggling to serve their customers using purely traditional planning and costing methodology are often unable to meet the demands for agility and responsiveness that consumers at the end of the supply chain are requesting.

这并不是什么最新消息：由于压缩成本提高效率的需求，制造商（如果不是所有类型的企业）正面临着越来越大的压力。但是，传统的物料需求计划（MRP）通常无法解决这些压力，传统的MRP是基于批次的或者推进式的生产计划模式及相关规模经济的产品成本途径。
因此人们对精益制造支持的哲学越来越感兴趣。要了解这个趋势，你只要稍微地回顾一下1990年代的企业资源计划（ERP）系统，然而不幸的是，该系统本质上是认知的（即，最周详的计划也会由于缺乏现实世界的反馈而常常出错）而非自发的。另外，还有一大堆其他众所周知的MRP相关问题如复杂的物料单（BOMs）、低效的工作流、毫无附加值的交易及操作、糟糕的（通常是手工的）数据收集。企业使用完全传统的计划和成本方法来努力服务客户，却无法满足位于供应链终端的客户对敏捷和响应度的要求，这一点毫不奇怪。
