undertaking through planning, coordinating, and controlling the production activities that
transform the raw material into finished products or components as the most optimal manner.

production process and prevent setbacks from affecting their normal operations.

with suppliers and other third-party vendors at the planning stage helps lead to accurate sourcing and
allocation of materials.
• Improve production time: Proactively identify if there would be challenges, bottlenecks, or causes of
production delays ahead of time
• Reduce production costs: With a well-planned and constantly-monitored production, businesses can
utilize their resources efficiently and effectively.
• Minimize resource waste: Maintain inventory at optimal levels with the execution of strong
production planning and control.

approach in the production process, it’s easier to spot inefficiencies, prevent production delays, and
