4 Master Production Scheduling is the heartbeat
of your manufacturing operation. By maintaining
all of your production planning information
online, you can monitor the accuracy of
your build schedule to produce the right
products at the right time. You will be
able to schedule production based on valid
due dates and quantities to meet known demands,
and be alerted to production problems so
you can respond immediately. With its finger
firmly on the inventory pulse, your optional
MRP Module can be used to alert you when
to issue your material requirements to satisfy
your inventory demands for either work orders
or stock. For non-MRP planning of materials,
additional inventory management tools support
both Customer Supplied Inventory plus Vendor
Consigned Inventory including a full cost
accounting interface.
With your materials management issues
under control, your Production Planning/Scheduling
Department can focus more effectively
on managing work-in-process, setting production
priorities, and analyzing capacity constraints.
With the advent of innovative manufacturing
techniques such as Lean, having smaller
batch, tighter standards and on time assembly
and completion of parts, is quickly becoming
a necessity. This competitive advantage
is now available through your FlexGen
4 Master Production Scheduling environment.
By implementing
Production Planning & Scheduling,
your company will benefit by:
- Instantly highlighting production
problems associated with costs, schedules,
production capacity or labor and materials
resources.
- Utilizing "What-If" analysis tools
to evaluate changes to the "Production
Plan" due to unforeseen sales or production
opportunities.
- Analyzing the effect on production
of the addition of future business in
light of current resource commitments
and capacity constraints.
- Providing instant and accurate work
order status of parts moving through
production, including where parts are
located, quantities completed and projected
completion date of the job.
- Utilizing a unique process called
"Work Order Manager" which brings all
the key production and cost related
information plus history together in
one dynamic window.
- Electronically broadcasting critical
production events back to production
planning, so management can respond
directly to problems in delivery, process
or production.
