Scheduling in a high-mix, high-volatility manufacturing environment is difficult, at best. ERP scheduling modules, paper travelers, scheduling spreadsheets, and white boards can no longer keep up with the pace of change. But if you just accept the resulting lack of forward visibility into shop floor operation status and demand, you accept too many hidden costs. These are spelled out in the “unseen scheduling issues” e-book available on this page. You can change this situation. nMetric scheduling software gives you the tools you need to dynamically and proactively manage change. It was created by manufacturers for manufacturers. Watch this short video for an introduction to their concept of self-routing “Smart Jobs,” the basis of nMetric Smarter Scheduling®. Is it possible to maintain an accurate, optimized production schedule in a high mix, high volatility world?

StartProto seamlessly integrates with your existing workflows. From quote to cash, modernize all your manufacturing processes and optimize your operations with our lightweight but powerful software. Accurately calculating the cost of producing parts or services is crucial for job shops in order to stay competitive and profitable. With traditional quoting methods, it can be difficult to take into account all the necessary factors, such as run time, setup time, and material cost, leading to inaccuracies and potential financial losses. Our software allows job shops to take into account all these factors in the quoting process. By incorporating run time, setup time, and material cost into the calculation, manufacturers can produce more accurate quotes and avoid underbidding or overcharging for their products and services. This helps to stay competitive in the market, by providing transparent and fair prices to customers.
