ABSTRACT
There are limits to traditional Operations Planning in a supply-chain context. First, the purposes of the 3 planning levels, i.e. strategic, tactical and operational, are set.
The weaknesses of synchronization in classical MRPII planning are described next.
Finally, uncertainties supply chains face to, for example the “bullwhip effect” are analyzed. The introduction of new planning systems, APS, is consequently deducted

To this end, we first present the levels associated with strategic, tactical and operational supply chain planning. We will situate the MRP II planning levels presented in
In the second part, we present the limitations of traditional MRP II planning.
The third part will look at the issues facing supply chains today, the management of variability and of the "new supply chain". bullwip effect". In this section, we'll look at the role that tactical planning can play.
We conclude this article by analyzing the evolution of ERP systems to understand APS "Advanced Planning Systems".
