CUSTOS POTENCIAIS DA PRODUÇÃO E OS BENEFÍCIOS DO PLANEJAMENTO E CONTROLE DA PRODUÇÃO

There are many costs related to the manufacturing planning and control system. Too many large projects concerning the improving, maintaining or implementation of such systems proceed without sufficient analysis of costs and benefits. This paper introduces a proposal to identify and to measure the benefits from the manufacturing planning and control systems management. The concept of potential production costs will also be presented within an illustrative example. Finally, some discussions conclude this work.
