A random sample of South Carolina manufacturing firms was sent the same questionnaire that an earlier survey by Anderson, Schroeder, Tupy, and White used to study the MRP practices of firms in the midwest. The Anderson study was restricted to firms that had APICS members in their employ. This current study reinforces overall the experiences with MRP found by the Anderson group.
