Maximizing Output
In many ways each "machine shop" is unique. But the common problem all successful machine shops face is using resources optimally to maximize profit, and customer satisfaction. Having the right resources available at just the right time to perform the operations needed to get the orders delivered on time is part art, part science, and sometimes part luck. The more complex product offerings; more sub assemblies; more outside contractors; extensive setup and product movement time... all contribute to an exponentially more complex task for the scheduler. And even if s/he is successful at scheduling, without the data of actual to compare against, improving the process is basically tribal knowledge.
Our scheduling solutions give you visibility to the backlog, available resources, priorities, lead times, costs, and the impact of a seeming small change on the total throughput of your facility... and by collecting actual results against the schedule, you can improve your estimating substantially; making you more competitive and more profitable.
