Abbrev. For dividend reinvestment plan.
distribution resource planning. The function of planning inventory levels, supply and replenishment logic, and demand response for an organization's distribution network. After defining the network, orders and forecasts at distribution facilities that drive projected stock levels below the reorder point trigger a suggested replenishment order from the supply source, based on lead time and lot size parameters. Each distribution point passes demand to the next supply source, which is either a vendor, another distribution center or a manufacturing plant. DRP also incorporates logistics resource planning, and is sometimes described as MRP for a finished goods network.

Distribution requirements planning. 1) The function of determining the need to replenish inventory at branch warehouses. A time-phased order point approach is used where the planned orders at the branch warehouse level are “exploded” via MRP logic to become gross requirements on the supplying source. In the case of multilevel distribution networks, this explosion process can continue down through the various levels of regional warehouses (master warehouse, factory warehouse, etc.) and become input to the master production schedule. Demand on the supplying sources is recognized as dependent, and standard MRP logic applies. 2) More generally, replenishment inventory calculations, which may be based on other planning approaches such as period order quantities or “replace exactly what was used,” rather than being limited to the time-phased order point approach.
