• Increased production efficiency. Run like products together to reduce mold changes and clean-out time.
• Process change-over reduction.
• Inventory reduction. Less inventory is needed to fill time sensitive orders when capacity can be accurately predicted.
• Accurate delivery date quotes. This creates customer loyality and satisfaction.
• Supply chain optimization. The system can connect to an MRP.
• Material Requirements Plan to ensure the necessary materials for order are on hand or ordered on time. We can also provide an MRP system if needed.
• Reduced scheduling effort by arranging an optimal schedule per the constraints.
• Labor load leveling. Reduce labor spikes and declines by projecting schedule into the future.
• Real time information. View the jobs that are currently running, allow customer services to see the capacity available.
• Identify and reduce bottlenecks.

Unlike an Accounting system that can work well as a one-size-fits-all template, Production Scheduling systems are often complex. A generic, off-the-shelf system tries to offer as much functionality as possible. This often results in an overly complicated system that is difficult to use. To avoid implementation and usability problems, a tailored software is recommended. A configured software gives you the functionality that you require without the confusion.
