My Challenges
Himself is the man. Or the woman. At least in production planning. In many companies, planning is still associated with a high level of manual effort. This starts with the fact that for each new production order, a routing card and the confirmation slips are first printed out. And when the job is completed, they need to be collected again. It is never certain whether all registration forms have really been returned and whether the specified times have been recorded correctly.
If you need a quick overview of production with reliable times for planning and calculation, then this often becomes difficult. And it is just as difficult to reschedule capacities and reschedule production times for new orders. Since work or order preparation is the link between design and actual production, the entire production process can come to a standstill.
