FOURTH SHIFT is an MRP software tool.

Careful John, you are getting carried away with this.

But OTOH, the job posting is pretty interesting. Why would one hire a professional MRP (Materials Requisition and Planning)person unless you needed someone to coordinate large scale material purchases coordinated with production schedules. In other words, you wouldn't bring a fairly expensive salary like this on-line until you were in the process of purchasing large amounts of material for an ongoing production process. And not before large scale production began.

This is a pretty good clue that mass production on several lines, operating several shifts, is indeed underway in NI.
