Capacity requirements plans are specifically designed to project the load ahead for particular machines or workers, taking into account the work orders generated by the MRP system. Organisational work plans focus more broadly on the overall workflow and scheduling of tasks, and rough cut capacity plans provide a high-level estimate of capacity needs without factoring in specific work orders. Resource requirements plans are similar to capacity requirements plans but may also include the procurement of materials or equipment needed for production.
