Application
The more exact the planning, the more efficient and cost-effective the production. Hence, no production can dispense with software-supported planning. However, the opposite is generally the case: routinely, customer orders are planned in an ERP system, and the rough weekly production planning is often also still produced in the ERP system. However, when it comes to the daily and hourly resources allocation and planning, the detailed production scheduling frequently still happens in Office programs. This creates many problems and, specifically, manual ones: download the data, modify it and process it. Therefore working with Office tables or paper costs a lot of time and confuses relationships. Instead, production coordination takes place by means of e-mails, telephone calls and meetings.
The Planning system from PILOT:Advanced Planning eliminates this earlier workload, as this easily-importable software is the first step towards system-based planning. The data from rough planning can be downloaded automatically from the ERP system and then displayed in Planning. Resources can then be allocated using drag & drop: last-minute order-changes are also easily possible. A connection to the production system allows all production data to be displayed in real time in Planning. The real-time data creates a high level of visibility for all process operators or decision-makers, and variances can be identified quickly.
