The purpose of this study is to help users and system engineers to choose the proper concepts for systems of production control/materials management. A typology of production situations and a typology of production control concepts have been developed for this. By comparing these typologies the problem ‘which control concepts will fit a given production situation?’ is discussed. By way of illustrating some existing production control concepts are roughly ‘allocated’ to production situations. The problem of more precise allocation is discussed.
