Available-to-promise : ウィキペディア英語版 | Available-to-promise Available-to-promise (ATP) is a business function that provides a response to customer order enquiries, based on resource availability.〔Ball, M.O. et al. (2004), "Available to Promise" in ''Handbook of Quantitative Supply Chain Analysis - Modeling in the E-Business Era'', Kluwer〕 It generates available quantities of the requested product, and delivery due dates. Therefore, ATP supports order promising and fulfillment, aiming to manage demand and match it to production plans. Available-to-promise functions are IT-enabled and usually integrated in enterprise management software packages. However, ATP execution may need to be adjusted for the way a certain company operates. == Classification == A fundamental distinction between ATP functions is based on the push-pull strategy. Push-based ATP is based on forecasts regarding future demand - based on anticipation of demand, ATP quantities and availability dates are computed. A prominent example is the traditional determination of ATP based on the Master Production Schedule. The push-based approach is fundamentally limited by dependence on forecasts, which may prove inaccurate. Gross ATP represents the total available supply, Net ATP represents the supply remaining to support new demands, after existing demands have been accounted for. Pull-based models, on the other hand, dynamically allocate resources in response to actual customer orders. This means that pull-based ATP is able to balance forecast-driven resource replenishment with order-triggered resource utilization,〔Zhao, Z. (2005), "Optimization-based Available-to-promise with Multi Stage Resource Availability", Annals of Operations Research 135, 65-85〕 but because resources are allocated with each coming order, the process will yield myopic results.
