Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The technique of MRP (Material Requirement Planning) is used to ensure that the right parts and materials are available at the right time to meet the production schedule. Therefore, option D is the most appropriate choice. Option A (reliable sales forecast) is not a direct result of MRP and option B and C (sequencing tasks and staffing departments) are related to project management and not material planning.
