    This document introduces hierarchical production planning and describes its role in modern corporations. It uses a materials requirements planning (MRP)-based "push" framework to break production planning down through different time horizons from corporate strategy to shop floor control. These include aggregate planning at the monthly level, master production scheduling at the weekly level, MRP for materials and procurement lead times, and production control at the real-time level. It also mentions a alternative continuous flow "pull" framework and lists the textbook chapters and materials relevant to this part of the course.
