PushSysteme refers to push-based systems used in production planning, logistics, and information distribution. In a push system, decisions and work packets are created in advance and then pushed downstream to subsequent processes or recipients based on forecasts, schedules, or pre-defined rules.
Origin and concept: In manufacturing and inventory management, push systems arise from master planning where forecasted
Characteristics: Key features include forecast dependence, longer lead times, and the use of buffers or safety
Applications: Classic push systems are associated with materials requirements planning (MRP) in factories, where production and
Limitations and trade-offs: Push systems can reduce response time and simplify planning when demand is stable,
