    just plan it

    just plan it

    NETRONIC Software

    just plan it is production scheduling for high-mix low-volume make-to-order shops. From working with hundreds of shops, we figured out why some of them succeed. Although successfully running an ERP system, CIOvita's production scheduling always happened with homegrown Excel spreadsheets. This approach did not scale with the company's growth. Consequences were: lack of transparency, and hence loss of agility. Constant change and fire-fighting became the norm. Before using just plan it, Loynds relied on spreadsheets, paper lists and “lots of head scratching in order to calculate delivery times and ensure our engineering team had up-to-date work lists” as Richard Loynds, Managing Director at Loynds, remembers. The challenge was the missing transparency on what was actually happening on the shop-floor combined with rapidly changing processes. This missing transparency led to a constant miss of delivery dates, which put customer relations on risk.

    Prestige Scheduler

    Scheduling Technologies

    A highly efficient and versatile electronic planning board for your web browser. The EPB is a graphical view of your currently scheduled jobs. The board shows each process step as a bar, drawn to scale according to the underlying process's current loading (hours left still to run). The loading is further broken down into setup time, run time and clean-up time. These are called activities. The activities have their own colors and these are displayed along the bottom of the bar. The main body of the bar shows the current status of the process (the color) and the fields that have been selected for the bar content. As well as Process bars, the EPB also contains what we call down-bars. Down bars block out time spans when the resource is not available for production. Down bars can be created for the resource using down-time Proformas. If you implement Labor Tracking, dynamic down bars are created based on the Labor force shift patterns.

    Processes of logistics and planning are the bloodstream of the factory and thanks to them it is possible to manufacture high-quality products. User-friendly and easy-to-use planning tools, as well as reports and analyses available in real-time, are something that enables efficient work of the department. Undoubtedly, materials and semi-finisheds delivery delays to production cells are the main problem occurring between logistics and production. They are also one of the main reasons for the low production to plan ratio. The second major problem is miscommunication between the consumers (production department) and the suppliers (in-house logistics department). In a constantly changing plant environment, the lack of quick access to complex analyzes is a real problem. Lack of information causes a lack of action, and this further results in remaining unconscious in a pathological situation.

    Phenix

    Phenix

    Phenix

    Phenix planning and scheduling software uses Aligned Product Wheels™ to optimize changeovers and inventory, and align production with the business’s customer service, cost and working capital goals. Schedules determine the sequence and timing of the production of hundreds or thousands of different products across multiple production lines. Correct production sequences minimize changeover costs. Every out of sequence product complicates the changeover and wastes time and money. Correct cycle times balance changeover and inventory costs. Cycles that are too short or too long cause customer service and inventory problems.Volatile demand, erratic supply, and internal plant and staffing problems force schedulers to frequently deviate from plan and reschedule. Phenix product wheels assign product families to lines and optimize the production sequence to minimize changeover loss.

    E-Z-MRP

    E-Z-MRP

    Beach Access Software

    MRP Software plans your material requirements the same way you do, or would if you had the time, patience and accuracy. There is nothing magical or particularly complicated about inventory and production planning. Just like you, E-Z-MRP looks at all of your customer orders and forecasts and, from your bills of material (BOMs), figures out what you need to make and buy. It subtracts everything you already have on hand or on order. And then, from the lead time to make or buy each item, E-Z-MRP calculates when you should place your purchase orders and when you should open your work orders, so that you finish your products on time to meet the ship dates you promised to your customers. Unlike more complex material planning software products, E-Z-MRP software does not require you to do anything you don’t want to do in order to get just the production planning information you need.
