Achieving Optimal Scheduling Efficiency

As a production planner, you need to adjust

your production plan frequently. Changing

customer demand, material shortages, die,

tooling and plant equipment issues are prob-

lems faced daily by most manufacturing

operations. All of this detail is visible on the

scheduling engine screen to support your

desire to make the best decision.

The Shop Edge Scheduling “EDGE”

Potential production bottlenecks are highlighted in several intuitive pro-

duction screens for quick response and easy schedule manipulation.

Your planned build quantities can be easily changed on the fly,

removed, reprioritized higher or lower in the priority list or reinserted

into your schedule.

As changes to the production schedule are made, they are immediately

reflected on terminals used by work center operators, plant team lead-

ers, and material planners ensuring smooth transitions and an informed

shop floor.

P a g e 2

The ability to coordinate scheduling in a complex manufac-

turing process using multiple variables such as tooling,

change over time, production run volumes, shipping lead

times, on-hand inventory etc.

Your own variables and your own data is used to drive opti-

mal scheduling across the plant and to maintain peak

efficiency

A responsive alerting mechanism that minimizes production delays by allowing you to respond

before production is interrupted

The ability to easily modify key production requirements on the fly so you can effectively

reprioritize production runs

Instantaneous updates are provided to all production work centers thus coordinating all

operational activity in a timely manner to the shop floor

Synchronize your production requirements with your tooling capacity to insure that you have

the correct tooling available for harmonized production

Align your overall schedule with your capacity and with your available inventory to streamline

operations

With optimized scheduling you have the power to reach and maintain peak efficiency and

productivity

Data driven business practices allow you to analyze your own performance and to consistently

work to improve OEE

Incorporating critical parts and inventory components in your scheduling permits you to elimi-

nate logistical interruptions

A flexible scheduling engine allows you to adapt to real life production issues and maintain

smooth operations

Analysis of key production metrics supports your drive to peak OEE

The Scheduling Horsepower You Need

With the ShopEdge advanced Scheduling Engine you have the

ability to combine finite capacity scheduling, the multivariable

scheduling engine can consider your actual production capacity in

conjunction with your actual demand. It utilizes the real life con-

straints that you face and then provides you with the optimum

strategy. The resulting data driven scheduling supports your deci-

sions and you have the flexibility of scheduling in make-to-order or in

batch size quantity.

Advanced Scheduling takes into consideration multiple out parts at

any operation and populates the schedule accordingly to maintain

inventory levels and complete orders for all parts.

Optimize Scheduling with Tooling Synchronization

Improve your operational efficiencies with our inte-

grated Tooling & Maintenance module enabling you

to manage tooling issues before they affect your

schedule.

Easily and quickly generate realistic schedules that

consider tooling problems, material availability, and

last minute order changes.

Real Visibility that Enables Real Productivity and Profitability

Production Efficiency and Key Measurable tracking

can help you optimize your work flow and improve

operational efficiencies.

With press load analysis and work center availability

by shift you can improve your facilities Overall

Equipment Efficiency (OEE).
