Announcing October 2014
Planning is everyone’s business Planning is the activity that unifies all the
decisions made in the plant. This requires
close collaboration and coordination by
management, sales teams and produc-
tion .
PMP Planning’s software tools have been
developed bearing in mind the role and
abilities of each stakeholder in the plant: the
operator, supervisor, Director, salespeople,
financial controller, owner and share-
holders.
The planner’s role The planner must be able to pass on
the company’s business vision to the
plant floor. PMP Planning provides all
the tools to translate the master plan
resulting from the corporate budget
into production orders for each de-
partment, making changes as needed
when unexpected events occur on the
mill floor.
Operational planning and production orders
Users of software tools
Strategic and operational planning When strategies are reflected in terms of years or months, planning if closely re-
lated to the choice of products to manufacture, purchases of raw materials and
investments in new equipment. On the other hand, planning must also respond to
more operational considerations such as orders, stock levels, use of equipment,
etc. To meet all of these needs PMP Planning offers the following intelligent tools:
Production order (daily plan)
For the entire plant, it’s worthwhile to coordinate the sawing, drying and planing
activities to issue an operational plan that’s in line with the company’s strategic
plan. The results are presented in a Gantt chart (see example above) which lets
work orders be issued to the loaders and the managers for each department.
Stock level tracking (weeks/
months)
Analyze your operations in terms of variations
encountered during the production weeks:
changes in demand, prices, inventory levels,
production rates, etc.
Business decisions (months/years)
What happens if: supply changes, productivity of part of the plant increases, a
section is added, etc.; all these “what if” scenarios need in-depth analysis but they
offer particularly great potential for boosting the plant’s profitability.

All players collaborate in achieving the company’s business objectives
• The sales department analyzes trends and market prices and announces opportunities to be captured over a given period, which can be measured in months
• Purchasing managers confirm the availability of raw materials as well as anticipated changes in key properties
The production department together with this data announces potential constraints arising from equipment capacity limitations.
It all ends with activities being coordinated with the support of PMP Plan-ning software providing optimal and realistic scenarios. The result is opera-tional plans that will be followed by plant personnel.
