Peter also managed to obtain information on the cur-
rent inventory levels of each of the parts which made up
the finished bat, together with cost data and lead times.
He was surprised, however, how long it took him to
obtain this information. 'It has taken me nearly two days
to get hold of all the information I need. Different people
held it, nowhere was it conveniently put together; and
sometimes it was not even written down. To get the
inventory data, I actually had to go down to the stores and
count how many parts were in the boxes. ' The data Peter
collected was as shown in Table 14.10.
Peter set himself six exercises which he knew he would
have to master if he was to understand fully the basics of
MRP.
Exercise 1
Draw up:
(a) the single-level bill of materials for each level of
assembly;
(b) a complete indented bill of materials for all levels of
assembly.
