Jenkins developed an heuristic algorithm for performing the right-hand-side parametric analysis of a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) problem with an approach completely different from all previous work in the area: his method can use any software capable of solving MILP problems and able to perform parametric linear programming (PLP), There is no proof of completeness by using Jenkins's algorithm. In this paper we present results that allow us to verify the completeness of the parametrical analysis. Like Jenkins's algorithm our procedure is theoretically independent of the solution method to solve a point-value problem.
