Touchless Production Planning

Overview
Automate daily or weekly production sequencing and capacity checks with governed rules, cutting manual effort while improving schedule adherence.

Problems We Solve

  • Spreadsheet‑heavy weekly plans

  • Manual capacity checks and late changes

  • Low schedule adherence and firefighting

What You Get

  • Sequencing logic (changeover, campaigns, constraints)

  • Capacity validation and exception alerts

  • Scenario runs (rush orders, changeovers, downtime)

  • Power BI dashboards: plan vs actual, capacity utilization, exceptions

Inputs / Outputs

  • Inputs: demand, BOMs, routings, capacity calendars, lead times

  • Outputs: line‑level schedule, exception list, BI‑ready plan vs actual

How success looks like

  • 60-80% of time saved on production planning.

  • Rush‑order handling without destabilizing the plan

Typical Timeline

  • Pilot: 5–8 weeks

  • Scale: per site/line in 3–5 weeks

FAQs

  • FAQ: “Do planners keep control?” → Yes—parameters and overrides are governed.
