An easy to read introduction to DRP,
This review is from: DRP: Distribution Resource Planning: The Gateway to True Quick Response and Continuous Replenishment (Hardcover)
This is an easy to read introduction to DRP. It outlines the technique as well as the main advantages thereof. The explanation is done over an example which makes it easy to be understood. Nevertheless, there is a lack of a deeper insight (no math is used) and of some kind of software isuues related. There is also too much hype on DRP as the final solution for many problems (which isn't by far), which makes the reading close to those books bought in the airports book shops. All in all, is a good overview of this technique.
