This information is analyzed to determine the optimal schedule that meets your customer demands as well as your lean business objectives. The result is a production management solution that brings your organization:

Demand driven, on-time delivery
Accurate and timely production planning
Optimized use of available resources (material, labor, equipment, etc.)
Expanded visibility into utilization and allocation
Reduced cycle times
Minimized inventory costs
Maximized plant floor throughput

Powerful Production Scheduling and Planning Software Modules

With DELMIAWorks' Manufacturing Production Scheduling and Planning software modules, you can now easily maintain customer satisfaction while ensuring conformance to plans and profitability across the enterprise.

Capable to Promise - A powerful "what if" capability encompasses the entire production process to determine availability of required raw materials, purchased parts, manufacturing time and more required to complete the required order.
Forecasting and Production Planning - Real-time integration with order entry and sales modules allows for collaborative forecasting based on real-time data from throughout the enterprise.
Material Requirements and Resource Planning (MRP) - The DELMIAWorks MRP engine accurately and effectively manages all resources and raw materials necessary to meet manufacturing demand, while maintaining lean inventory levels. It includes items manufactured internally and through third party vendors, as well as sub-assemblies.

Master Production Schedule (MPS) - Defines all resources, constraints and costs required to meet the manufacturing demand (forecast, sales order, and dependent), current work orders (firm, generated, manual) and projected on hand balances (availability), converting the data to a production plan.
Advanced Planning and Scheduling System - The flexible scheduling module executes the plans and allows real-time adjustments to allow for unplanned events while ensuring optimal throughput through the enterprise.

Drag & Drop Scheduling

The DELMIAWorks visual scheduling module provides a color-coded graphical view of your entire manufacturing production schedule to help you quickly answer:

What's on the docket to run this shift
Where are the problems
How can we quickly identify where to put our efforts

See how the unique "drag and drop scheduling" feature allows you to:

Easily move jobs on the master production schedule by dragging from one location to another
Instantly identify the impact of changes on other jobs in the schedule
Determine if labor, equipment, tools and material resources are available to run the job
