LOT SIZE requirements

I have the Below requirement from the client. Can you please throw some light on this.

 

Current logic only considers requirements within a calendar month with regards to lot sizing.  For example, even if material X has a lot size of 1 Monthly period, a planned order falling in the middle of a month will only cover the remaining requirements for that month (~2 weeks), with a new planned order generating the first week of the succeeding month to cover all requirements in that month.  We have a need to produce in monthly and bi-monthly frequencies at location X but cannot have all of the monthly requirements systematically falling on the first week of the month as this will put the plant considerably over capacity for that week.
