Demo version

Order Slotting & Scheduling mediates real-time data between sales and production, providing early visibility of bottlenecks. This is one of the key factors that today's manufacturers need to build a smart factory. flexis Order Slotting & Scheduling helps companies to implement the challenges of Industrie 4.0: In smart manufacturing, the software system must level and smooth all production orders with a medium-term planning background. By merging and evaluating all data, the availability of resources, among other things, is made transparent on an ongoing basis. Transport planning is aligned with material requirements and transport time windows within international supply chains. This enables real-time traceability of daily planning.

Result

Savings can be realized quickly through efficient and reliable production. The solution generates continuous improvements in the efficiency of production processes.

Advantage

The APS system with multiple point solution can be used for different plants or production areas for medium-term and short-term planning and even for granular short-term planning. Real-time visibility even when rescheduling and redefining the order sequence.

DETAIL DESCRIPTION

Order Slotting & Scheduling provides information about the workflow in the order center and links the sales view with the production view. The production planner can see the current medium-term planning horizon in the order center. The software displays new orders and changes, while possible scheduling dates are visualized. If necessary (e.g. in the case of sudden special orders), the planner can trigger optimized order planning. The sales view shows construction bins for specific order configurations, for example for prioritized orders. The preview over the production program visualizes assembly capacities and ensures reliable and balanced resource planning.

Typical challenges such as

  • excessively high inventory capital costs
  • slow reaction times to changes
  • lack of transparency, e.g. about supply or resource bottlenecks

can be significantly improved by the APS solution. Alarm functions in store floor management ensure early detection of disruptions. This provides a solid basis for rescheduling decisions. The APS system generates a proposal for the largely even distribution of orders, with the option of manual rescheduling via a drag & drop function.

VALUE ADDED

  • scalable: fast ROI through easy implementation
  • integrated analytics: supports fast decision making
  • continuous process improvement: Reduction of personnel costs
  • increased delivery reliability: sustainable, reliable statements to the customer
  • complete supply chain optimization: reduction of work-in-process and finished goods inventories
  • even distribution of work content: Increase in productivity
  • reduction of the necessary flexibility on the procurement side
  • available in the cloud
  • the Order Slotting solution offers even more benefits when extended with a JobShop scheduling solution or a sequencing solution

Target groups:

  • medium-sized production companies in various industries
  • machine, plant and tool manufacturers
  • series producers
  • vehicle manufacturers
  • vehicle supplier
