Would you like to have a more effective production line? Let us help you with our solutions for product planning.
- Do you have a business system (ERP) which you would like to expand to suit the specific needs of your production line?
- Would you like to increase the planning efficiency for your products and improve the control over different versions?
- Would you like to receive information about the method of production, the expenses and materials necessary for production?
- Would you like to shorten the implementation time of new products and standardise the process of their production?
- Are the market conditions of your suppliers changing quickly and would you like to adapt to them as soon as possible?
Reasons why the implementation of the product planning system is the right choice for your needs
Lower development and implementation costs of a new product
The development time and the time of implementing a new product into the production line is reduced by up to 10 times. This is why you will essentially save on the development costs and costs of implementing new products.
Higher quality level and better control
With the implementation of the product planning system you will achieve a higher quality of product specifications and improved control over the history of its different versions. This is why your production operations will be more effective and also easier.
Flexibility
The forces on the market of suppliers, materials, buyers and market needs are changing extremely fast. This is why it is very important to maintain a flexible production process which is able to adapt to new challenges as soon as possible.
With the help of the product planning system you will ensure significantly easier and faster response to change, which will allow you to adapt to market needs faster than your competition.
Production planning and optimisation
The product planning system enables you to produce different analyses, reports and simulations which help you lower costs and optimise subsequent delivery or new orders as early as in the planning stage of production. This way you will ensure timely project execution, without unnecessary complications and unexpected additional costs.
Product calculation
Using the product planning system you will be able to calculate how much material you need as early as in the product’s development stage. This will allow you to perform accurate calculations that will enable you to plan sales and revenues much easier before even launching the product.
How does the system work?
The product planning solution supports the development and management of products’ bill of materials and the associated technological processes or semi-finished products. In the initial stage, the planner is able to draft a bill of material through the graphical interface, wherein he defines which materials make up a respective product and in what proportion, as well as how they are interconnected.
In the next stage, the product technology is also graphically defined, i.e. the sequence of procedures and operations which are needed for the production and connect this data with the corresponding line of the products bill of materials to which a particular operation refers to.
The system enables very simple management and use of existing data, production of new products that are similar to existing ones, calculation of the materials needed and cost-cutting analysis when changing the material’s type or quantity in a product.
The solution exchanges data with the business system (ERP) and is also connected to the production control and scheduling system (APS/MES). More
Who is the production planning system suitable for?
Production planning system is a great solution for all production companies that want their production operations to move a step forward towards a more effective production.
