PT. XYZ is a private based company which operates in research and development area for military defence in Indonesia. Not only researching and developing their products, PT. XYZ also manufactures their products too. For the time being, PT. XYZ in manufacturing the products have a problem, the problem is the schedule for finishing the product is always late and not accurate on the timeline. The purpose of this research is to prevent production schedule tardiness and improve raw materials requirement planning at PT. XYZ. To find the root problem, current reality tree (CRT) is used. There are several root problem collected from the CRT, but the selected root problem for this research are poor inventory management for raw materials and poor material requirements planning. The method used in this research is Material Requirements Planning (MRP). To create an MRP, there are several steps to become the input of MRP, they are aggregated forecast demand, aggregate planning, master production schedule (MPS), bill of materials (BoM), and inventory records file. All those steps mentioned before are proposed in this research too, to help PT. XYZ preventing production schedule tardiness. The result of the proposed MRP are gross requirements of materials required for certain unit of vehicle production, planned order receipt, planned order release, when and how much materials should be needed to produce vehicles in the planning horizon. With this MRP, PT. XYZ could plan a better raw materials requirement, then schedule tardiness could be prevented or minimized, thus helps PT. XYZ to avoid penalty from schedule tardiness, and bring more revenue.
