Demand-Driven Material Requirements Planning (DDMRP) implementation impacts on Supply Chain Management strategic processes: an AHP approach

Abstract

First of all, I would like to express my deep and sincere gratitude to my research supervisor, Prof. Dr. Kleber Francisco Espôsto, for giving me the opportunity to do this research, his trust in my capacity, his tireless support and unparalleled presence of mind during the most turbulent times of this research completion. For all of it, I will be forever grateful. My wife, for the love, support, patience and incentive. For pushing me forward when I believed I could not make it. Thank you for everything that you always do for me. My parents, for the whole structure provided that made me who I am today, all the love, care, trust and support. I do not have words to express how thankful I am for having you. My brother, for being an example and for staying by my side during every tiny conquest. Thank you! My mother-in-law and father-in-law, for the support, all the help you provide to our family and for making me feel home every single day. To all my friends, for the laughs, ideas, talks and support in moments of need. Thanks to each one of you.
