Over 70,000 materiel requirements planning (MRP) and manufacturing resource planning (MRP II) systems have been implemented in this country in the last 20 to 30 years. Yet the question many of the companies who own these systems are asking is, "Was it worth it?" Less than a third of the companies are answering in the affirmative. Two key differences between the satisfied and the not-so-satisfied companies are (1) support to the user community and (2) management involvement in the day-to-day use of the system. Without these two items, the improvements brought about by an MRP or MRP II system will most likely be mediocre at best.
在过去二三十年里，该国已实施了7万多个物料需求计划（MRP）和制造资源计划（MRP II）系统。然而，许多拥有这些系统的公司都在问：“这值得吗？” 回答肯定的公司不到三分之一。满意的公司和不太满意的公司之间存在两个关键差异：（1）对用户群体的支持，以及（2）管理层对系统日常使用的参与。没有这两项，MRP或MRP II系统带来的改进最多也很可能只是平平。
