Material Requirements Planning is a so-called magical process that claims to perfectly estimate needed materials while actually conjuring both shortages and excess inventory simultaneously. The plans, born from endless spreadsheets and meetings, morph into a frenzy of numbers as deadlines loom. Planners wrestle with Excel macros and quietly watch departmental blame-shifting commence. In the end, the plan leaves behind heaps of paper and digital debris, with no one taking responsibility as it is passed on to the next version.
