Management of your production capacity may be your bottleneck for higher profitability. Manual planning approaches often lead to low utilization of key equipment due to excessive clean outs and setup which consume valuable time and reduce your throughput. Scheduling mistakes also lead to material shortages that starve resources causing lost output, lost sales, late penalties, and higher expedite costs. Advanced Planning and Scheduling systems automate the process of maximizing the output on your production floor so you are achieving the highest possible return on assets in your manufacturing business.
Using Excel for production planning and scheduling? If your team is struggling with such manual processes then you are losing the opportunity to streamline flow of orders through the shop and to your customers. An APS system will route work to the right people and machines at the right time and in the most efficient production sequence to get more done on-time at the lowest unit cost. This leads to faster delivery, shorter lead-times and higher profitability.
How can you predict your cash flow if you don't know what's going to ship each month? By upping your technology platform to utilize Advanced Planning and Scheduling software, your entire company will have clear visibility as to what orders will ship when. This means greater predictability for your customers, the shop floor, the customer service team, the sales team, your executive team, and your board. Production planning and scheduling software unites everyone in your company around a single version of the truth in terms of shipping plans and priorities. More visibility, greater predictability, higher efficiency, and less operating stress for everyone.
