    In ISA-88 terms "as built" is the same as the batch record, in ISA-95 terms "as built" is the same as a "segment response" in "production performance". [3] The details in an MBOM are good enough to allow it to be used in a manufacturing operations management (MOM) System or manufacturing execution system (MES).

    For example, if a product needed a sudden change in material or details changed, it can be done in between batches. As opposed to assembly production or mass production where such changes cannot be easily made. [3] The time between batches is called cycle time. [2] Each batch may be assigned a lot number.

    Outputs may be used to create a Material Requirements Planning (MRP) schedule. A master production schedule may be necessary for organizations to synchronize their operations and become more efficient. An effective MPS ultimately will: Give production, planning, purchasing, and management the information to plan and control manufacturing [3]
