Your trusted software, services & support partner

This solution has been developed to support the decision making process of everyone who is responsible for dynamic prioritisation of work schedules, profitable utilisation of resources and the meeting of strict delivery dates. Scheduling is a question of balance, a fine balance between demand and capacity. Maintaining that balance is a daily task that requires difficult decisions to be made with little or no time to ponder the outcome.

All of the functionality and features demanded by a wide range of scheduling needs are contained within this tool. By using the power of computing, harnessed to your unique understanding of the facility, this tool offers fast "what if?" testing of options to improve schedules and give answers quickly.

Priorities can easily be changed and plant efficiency compared before committing real resources. Process routes may also be altered so that you can quickly assess methods to overcome capacity bottlenecks and accurately predict delivery dates. This all combines to support swift and effective decision-making and increased customer satisfaction. Coupled with a two-way interface to and from MFG/PRO this allows users to integrate the many advantages in terms of inventory and production efficiency from this tool into the overall planning control of MFG/PRO:

  • Standard MFG/PRO interface. Electronic planning board.
  • Automatic scheduling with manual override facilities.
  • Shift patterns, overtime, breakdowns.
  • Automatic selection of alternative process routes.
  • Multiple constraint resource loading.
  • Resource selection and preference rules.
  • Internal configurable database with links to other packages.
  • Finite and infinite capacity resources.
  • Forward, backward and bi-directional sequencing.
  • Multiple scheduling simulation rates, e.g. critical ratio, least set-up time.
  • Gantt charts, work lists, and late completion reports.
  • Full Microsoft compatibility.
  • Route specific bills.
