Resource Planning Solution for Xentral Technologies' Xiamen Business Unit

Xentral Technologies’ manufacturing facility in Xiamen, China, is experiencing growing pain as the revenue nearly doubled in 2010. The company is looking for a resource planning solution to manage the scale-up of engineering and purchasing personnel to support such rapid growth. This project develops the solution based on internal data collected from interviews with Supply Chain, Engineering, and Business Leaders. Final deliverables include a spreadsheet tool to estimate the purchasing and engineering personnel required from May 2010 to April 2011, a staffing plan, and personnel management recommendations.
