It brings together key capabilities to determine what can be committed to customers, what should be produced, in what order, and exactly when and where work should run. The result is a single, consistent decision framework that delivers realistic delivery promises, executable production plans, and greater confidence in execution, even in the most complex manufacturing environments.

Key Solutions

Enterprise-wide or In-Plant Order Selection:

Support broad or localized order allocation for seamless integration across all production stages.

Multi-Operation and Multi-Stage Planning:

Manage work-in-progress (WIP) while addressing both single and multiple operations.

Alternate Lines with Preferences:

Define preferences for alternate production lines to improve throughput and flexibility.

Auxiliary Resource Limits:

Set operation-specific limits on auxiliary resources, keeping processes efficient and compliant.
