The effectiveness and efficiency of production system is a guarantee of the company’s success, especially in times of dynamic growth of trade (including online trade), as well as increasing customers’ requirements, who want to have goods always available and delivered, preferably on the day of order. A modern customer of services raises the bar high not only for production systems, but also for transport systems. Therefore, IT tools supporting the management process of all areas of its activity are implemented in enterprises. This article describes selected of them, focusing primarily on the support of production planning process.As the use of IT systems should be preceded by deepening the knowledge of algorithms applied in them, first of all a calculation example of the use of material requirements planning procedure for complex products with a modular structure was presented, and then the characteristics of selected IT tools supporting the processes of material requirements planning and enterprise resource planning have been made.
