Production Scheduling Coordinate the flow of materials to increase throughput and reduce inventory and build the right part at the right time to satisfy customer demand. The system’s uniquely designed Production Scheduling System is the most powerful strategic tool you can use to increase throughput, cut operation expense, reduce inventory and streamline the management of the production schedule and shop floor data collection. The breakthrough methodology bridges the gap between infinite and finite scheduling by providing software that graphically displays the impact customer demand has on your plant’s capacity. To accomplish this, the system uses an interactive program called “Scheduling Grid Technology” and a “Graphical Planning Board”.
The Planning Board takes the data from the Production Scheduling Grid, which is in
an infinite capacity format, and literally stuffs it into the current finite
capacity so you can see how long it will take to fill demand, based on your current production capacity.
It’s like the difference between guessing how much liquid a particular glass will hold, and actually filling the glass to find the exact number of ounces. You can make a pretty good guess based on past experience, but it’s just a guess. The same is true when scheduling the shop floor. You have your intuition on production rates, tooling rates, and resource availability, but you don’t have exact numbers. Since there are so many parts and different machines that they can be produced on, you literally have to see the requirements poured into the machine capacity to see what to physically do next. The Continuous Operations Planning processor ensures that every net change in scheduling, anywhere in the system, is immediately integrated into the calculation of the dates and quantities of materials to be purchased and produced. So this system enables you to react to customer demand and synchronize your manufacturing operation to meet today’s ever changing scheduling demands. HIGHLIGHTS
