Advanced Planning & Scheduling

Form the foundation for reliable supply chain management. Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) enables manufacturers to make fast, reliable, and constraint-aware decisions by synchronizing demand, inventory, capacity, and execution across the entire operation.

Eyelit APS is a next-generation planning and scheduling platform built for complex discrete manufacturing. It handles the full range of production planning needs — from high-level capacity plans to finite shop-floor schedules — using an attribute and constraint-based approach that models real-world business rules, plant, material, and labor constraints.

Eyelit APS generates feasible, high-quality plans through holistic optimization, with no-code / low-code configuration that accelerates deployment and makes it an essential engine for digital transformation.

Differentiating Capabilities

Key Solutions

Attribute and Constraint-Based Planning

Attribute-driven modeling of products, resources, and constraints. Supports complex topologies, re-entrant flows, and real-world business rules for plant, material, and labor without writing code.

Sequencing and Re-Sequencing

Holistic plans and schedules generated simultaneously across capacity, materials, labor, and routing constraints. Re-sequencing with bias preserves schedule stability while absorbing new demand and supply chain changes.

Finite Scheduling

Constraint-aware finite scheduling across all work centers and resources. Delivers feasible, high-quality schedules that reflect real production conditions.

Detailed Resource Scheduling

Granular scheduling of machines, tooling, labor, and auxiliary resources at the operation level. Ensures every resource constraint is respected in the final executable schedule.

Capacity Planning (RCCP & CRP)

Rough-cut and detailed capacity analysis across all work centers. Identify bottlenecks before they impact delivery — days, weeks, or months ahead.

What-If Scenario Analysis

Compare alternative plans against real KPIs without touching the live schedule. Evaluate new orders, resource changes, or supply disruptions in minutes.

Built-to-Order

Connect customer orders directly to supply chains and generate real-time delivery dates and times based on actual plans and schedules — enabling responsive, customer-committed production.

Universal Platform

Deliver APS solutions across every manufacturing vertical, logistics, warehousing, and timetabling environment. One platform adaptable to any industry or operational model.

Detailed Resource Scheduling

Granular scheduling of machines, tooling, labor, and auxiliary resources at the operation level. Ensures every resource constraint is respected in the final executable schedule.

Cloud-Native Auto Scaling

On-demand compute for high-performance solver runs at low cost. Scale up for large planning horizons; scale down during off-peak periods automatically.

ERP, MES, & SIOP Integration

Bi-directional integration with SAP, Oracle, Infor, Eyelit MES, and Eyelit SIOP. Tight linkage between planning, scheduling, and shop-floor execution closes the loop in real time.

Reporting and KPIs

Standard and custom reports to show real-world KPIs including OTD, utilization, tardiness, and inventory turns. Live feeds to Power BI and Eyelit ADS.

Embedded AI agents for schedule health monitoring, exception management, capacity alerts, and what-if automation. Prescriptive guidance bridges the gap between novice and expert planners.
