Smart Scheduling for Industry 4.0
Manufacturing industries are constantly aiming to lower inventory levels to reduce costs, while still being able to respond to shorter lead times and thereby satisfy customer demand. However, in the everyday scheduling of large-scale operations, companies are faced with one or more of the following potential issues:
- Unexpected changes
- Urgent or priority orders
- Shortage of resources or manpower
- Shorter delivery/lead time
- Equipment breakdowns or constraints
- Any other unforeseen circumstances
Managing manufacturing priorities and building capacity is already a challenge, much less dealing with practical scheduling problems in this fast-paced economy.
However, with the aid of Advanced Production Scheduling Software (APS), you will be able to maximise efficiency in your everyday dealings. The benefits of the software for your company include:
- Built-in detailed templates and schedule visibility of production load
- Potential integration with Material Requirements Programs (MRP) to coordinate resource allocation and utilisation
- Reduction of setup, changeovers, inventory and work-in-progress (WIP) time
- Faster what-if scenario modeling and improved on-time delivery
Join this seminar to learn about this solution that will prove critical to a successful manufacturing operation and more.
