DDMRP

Rethinking Supply Chain Management in SAP

The concept of DDMRP (Demand-Driven Material Requirements Planning) is a game changer in Digital Supply Chain Management. Leading industry players – like BSH, a company of the Bosch Group – gain massive benefits by implementing the concept of Demand-Driven MRP within their SAP landscapes.

What is DDMRP in SAP?

Demand-Driven Material Requirements Planning (DDMRP) is a powerful approach that focuses on the variability in today’s supply chains rather than forecasting. Until recently, it was a challenge for companies to integrate DDMRP into SAP systems. In 2017, Camelot ITLab developed DDMRP for SAP IBP, the worldwide first enhancement of SAP Integrated Business Planning. In 2019 the next step was taken: Camelot ITLab and SAP announced their strategic co-development partnership to integrate DDMRP in the core SAP IBP, which now is available as the native module SAP Integrated Business Planning for Demand-Driven Replenishment.

These developments have enabled enterprises around the globe to implement the DDMRP concept into their SAP landscapes. DDMRP is the heart and engine of the Demand-Driven Adaptive Enterprise (DDAE), the highest form of Demand-Driven. The DDAE is the way intelligent enterprises will operate in the 21st century. The disruptive character of the Demand-Driven Adaptive Enterprise requires companies to radically redefine their planning and execution processes. Companies will greatly benefit from that concept by significantly improving key performance indicators.

Up to 54% service level increase

After implementing DDMRP, enterprises in average experience a service level increase up to 54%, a decrease of lead time up to 85%, and an inventory reduction up to 70%. The Demand-Driven Adaptive Enterprise significantly improves supply chain performance across industries. It is the future approach to control variability across value chains. In several industries, the Demand-Driven Adaptive Enterprise model already has been successfully employed to master complex and volatile environments.

Managing variability in today’s VUCA world

Almost all ERP or SCM/APS systems today are still working with the material requirements planning (MRP) processing logic from the 1960s. But that only works with very accurate demand forecasts – an impossibility in today’s lightning-fast global economy. The Demand-Driven Adaptive Enterprise with DDMRP at its core is a strong approach to mastering the extensive variability in today’s digital supply chains of the VUCA world, where VUCA stands for volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity.
