How can manufacturing processes be efficiently controlled despite a high number of variants and deadline pressure?
In many manufacturing companies, detailed planning is becoming the decisive lever for processing orders on time, flexibly and in a resource-saving manner. It forms the bridge between long-term production planning and daily production control.
Detailed planning – more than just machine utilisation
The demands on modern production systems are constantly increasing: short delivery times, fluctuating demands, increasing complexity due to the wide range of variants. Classic planning systems quickly reach their limits here.
Detailed planning solutions enable:
- Targeted assignment of orders to machines
- Consideration of setup sequences and bottlenecks
- Dynamic adjustment of order sequences
- Splitting or combining production orders
Optimisation models create additional efficiency
Individual optimisation models allow specific requirements and target values (such as adherence to delivery dates, costs or capacity utilisation) to be mapped in a targeted manner. This is possible by combining planning know-how with business intelligence methods.
Examples:
- Optimised allocation of bottleneck resources
- Combined planning of production and intralogistics
- Cutting optimisations for material-efficient production
What counts
Efficient detailed planning brings transparency to processes, increases responsiveness and supports well-founded decisions – in day-to-day business as well as in strategic matters.
Efficient planning, flexible response
If you want to future-proof your production, there is no getting around well-thought-out detailed planning. Investing in intelligent planning pays off – through stable processes, better delivery reliability and lower costs.
