Abstract

This study aims to implement the Master Production Schedule (MPS) method for the production process at BASF Company, especially for Softex 1097-A products. The author conducted an online interview with one of the employees at BASF Company regarding information about Production Planning and Inventory Control at BASF Company, which includes inventory records, Bill of Materials (BOM), forecast, customer orders, production plans, and capacity. From the information obtained, the Softex 1097-A production process was optimized at BASF Company by making a Master Production Schedule (MPS). Apart from interviews, the authors also collect literature from books, journals, and research related to Production Planning and Inventory Control. The results of the discussion show that Master Production Schedule (MPS) can help to adjust fluctuations in demand, reduce waste, minimize waste, prevent shortages and scheduling errors, increase efficiency at the site of production resources, provide more effective cost control and more accurate estimates of material. requirements and delivery dates, reducing waiting times during processing.
